I have a V100 Stelvio.
Already installed is a Denali "Dial Dim" controller, and associated S4 spot lights
Being a considerate rider, I only use the S4's at 15% intensity during the day as DRL's
On my V85TT I had the same setup, but had the Hi Beam connected, so the S4's came on 100% when flashing or on Hi beam...
It appears the V100 is not so straightforward, using a 0v trigger (some CANBUS thingy I assume) between the Hi/Lo switch on the bars (red box "6" in the diagram below) and the LED headlight module in the front fairing... I've looked at the workshop manual and the wiring diagram and can't work out how to get a Hi beam trigger...
Has anyone managed to find a work-around? I see Denali offer a "wiring adapter that will allow Denali lights to change intensity with your factory high beam switch" (see https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/2366627 - often used on mikes like Africa Twins I believe).
Wiring diagram shows what appears to be a 0v trigger (yellow wire below) from switch to headlight:

Can anyone offer any advice please?

OK! Answering my own question, having spent most of today stripping off the tupperwear, and doing some investigations...
Behind the headlight is a 8-way plug as the wiring diagram above suggests.
Like this:

The yellow/white one circled reads about 4.2v when on dip beam. as soon as you push the flasher/full beam it drops to 0v !!!

Denali Trigger Wizard on order :)
 
Love those new Stelvio and Mandello's
Really enjoying mine, a refreshing alternative. 115bhp, shaft drive, noticeably lighter than a GS, excellent build quality... Great bike!
Did a 1600 mile tour of Ireland and it was the perfect tool for the job, never missed my GS at all (even tho Mark was riding his GS)
