Purchased the Palmer Products light kit and an Autoswitch.

Two things I haven't been able to figure out:

1. Which wire to tap for the Autoswitch yellow trigger sense wire. (According to the service manual, I'm thinking the white high beam wire)

2. Which wire to tap for the Autoswitch 12V power wire.

I think I have everything else figured out.

Any help would be appreciated. I have the service manual, but am still unsure and have done many searches with no luck.

110 watts I suppose you are using a relay feed from the battery

Yellow to the battery. #30
Black = ground to bike #85
Red to lamps through fuse #87
Green from relay to switch #30

This is Optronics 101, but should be the same.

I know the relay connections. What I need is the Autoswitch taps into the factory wires and the colors of those.

Yes, I'm using a relay. If you look at the Autoswitch schematic, that is what I'm using. (AS5P2)

Looks like the Autoswitch trigger wire should tie into the white high beam wire and the Autoswitch power wire should tie into the blue power wire for the lights.
