    What color is the high beam wire on the 15 TTSE
    I am adding LED Aux lights to the bike and will be using a Skene dimmer switch, one wire needs to be attached to the high beam wire.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Easy to remember:  Both wire main colors are blue.  High beam has a white line.  Bright White.     Low beam has a red line.  Dim Red.

     tdragger Thanks, That is an easy way to remember.
    In your opinion where would be the easiest/accessible spot to tap into the wire.  :087:

    I was about to ask you.  I need to add the Skene Intelligent Light Controller to my set up as well and a high beam tap is required.

    I also have the photo blasters with the turn signal option and I need a place to mount its controller and tap into the turn signal wires.

     I'm thinking around the H-4 assembly, might be the shortest route. But probably not the  easiest/accessibility wise.
    The Posi-Taps do allow you to tap in way easier than having to cut any wires.

    I tapped the high-beam (and the horn) wires where they connect to the ECU, which is just to the left of and under the gas tank. There's no way to get to those connectors without pulling the gas tank. I did that because that's the only place where both of the wires I wanted didn't have a protective sheath that I didn't want to cut & re-tape.

    You can also, obviously, tap the wire as it goes into the socket for the headlight bulb, or basically anywhere along the wires coming from the left switch cube -- I believe, however, the wire colors in the switch cube may be colored differently, but they're easy to trace because you can follow them from the appropriate microswitch.

    You might be asking why I tapped the horn. I have my AUX lights go to full brightness (and blink and stuff via a small LED module) when the horn is hit. Incidentally, if you want to tap the horn wire, the horn switch is on the ground side of its circuit, so you need to run it through a relay or your device needs to have a ground trigger before wiring it to the light actuation circuit.
