[QUOTE="extrememarine, post: 1287539, member: 3568"] I have this exact set up on my '09 (LR4's with Skeene controller and three way switch). I will go look at what I used for the high beam by-pass trigger wire at the headlight. I have mine set up with a master on/off switch - so I can shut them completely off if needed; then I have a three position switch to give me the 3 programmable brightness / power levels. That switch is wired on one side to a 12v + source, a 12v -neg/ground source on the other pole. The first position gives me 10% power (can run at that setting all the time, day or night, and not blind oncoming or followed traffic), second is set for 30%, the third is set to 60%, and then when I hit the bike high beam, I get 100%. My Skeene is mounted on the outboard side of the battery, in the fairing. Sounds like you have the wrong high beam wire tapped as your trigger - I'll take a look and post later tonight. Wayne Edit: found my post on these, here is the text - I started with the Skene programmed for 40%, 60%, & 80%, but have changed that. I remember now - the Skene IS the relay - you're on / off switch should not go through a relay. The main feed to the controller can, if you want to ensure power is cut with ignition. Hope this helps... . [/QUOTE]
