    Headlight relay location/access

    I'd like to get to teh headlight relay to wire up a garage door opener circuit I've made.
    Worked great on my old bike which had a separate fuse for the high beam.

    Not so much on the Tuono where the high and low beams share the same fuse.

    So, looking at the wiring diagram, I need to get at the Bi/V (white/Green) wire on the high beam relay. Any idea on where the relay is located physically and how to get to it?

    From the clicking sound, I'd have to say its in the plastic cavity / case thing under the dash

    couldn't find how to get to it in the manual - any help much appreciated

    thanks

    These relays are indeed behind your front fairing. Remove te fairing to access them.

    A couple of hours should do. I just mounted a relay above the light relays for my heated grips. That's a grate place for a normal Auto relay for any acessory power.
    You have to remove the front fairing but that's only four bolts.
    You see the relays in this pic: http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/s...=1#post3088625
