Been searching the site and google looking for some info on which wire or what is the color of the wire in the tail section of my 2020 RS goes to license plate light. Does any member know which color wire is specifically used for the license plate. I"m wanting to use this wire for a switched wire for some new Denali D2s.
New to the RS world and this site.
Thanks,
Roach in Dallas

Did you get the CanSmart controller from Denali along with your lights? If not get one and connect using it. Very simple to use and tapping into another wire isn't necessary.

You may get lucky by just removing the cover to get at the bulb and see the colour of the wires. Just a thought.

There are two fuses under the rider's seat, one switched, the other not. I needed an ignition controlled source and simply added a piggy-back (fusetap) to the switched fuse, powering a relay (in my case a Fuzeblocks FZ-1) to keep the draw on the fuse low.
