No modification is required to the existing prop motor circuit. Just find some
slack in a wire going to the motor (hot or ground doesn't matter) and wrap 3
turns around a reed switch. Then connect the reed switch in series with a power
source and indicator LED. The reed switch is made of glass and will break
easily. It should not be stressed by the lead wires or while wrapping with turns
of wire. Also, a heat-sink should be used if soldered because the switch
will be damaged by heat.

Okay, figure out a way to substantially beef up support
of the rod right and for about 1" away from the solder
joint. If allowed to "wave in be breeze" it's going
break at the solder joint and depart the airplane . . .
if I recall your airplane configuration correctly,
there may be risk of putting that piece of wire through the prop?
A piece of Delrin, polycarbonate, etc cut drilled and
mounted to supply support is recommended.

Dennis sent me some additional photos and a wiring diagram off line showing
what I wanted to know.
I will be modifying the wiring some when I get to that project
Thanks
