I agree the led failure was weird. I don't really know what was going on there. So, I think I mostly figured out what was going on. I was setting up a potentiometer based steering sensor. I was using a 10 turn pot which is way more than the 3 turns the steering wheel does, so when I did the scaling ...

I am hooking it up to a Gr/Y wire that comes off of the negative side of the Coil and is labeled the RPM si...
