Default Coil "signal" wire

What colors are the coil signal wires on a 06 flhtc? Trying to hook up a pingle shifter. Thanks.

Maybe i should add a little more here. I am a truck guy to start with, new to working on harley's. In my world the "signal" wire is the negative as it makes, and breaks. The pingle instructions say to connect to the coil signal wires, and I sure dont want to screw this up.

Wow, I just knew when I got up this morning, with all the knowledge on this forum, I would have the magic answer. LOL! I am trying to get ready to go to Rockingham today, and looking forward to running my bike. I hope it turns some times like I think it will. So far I have only had it on the dyno drags machine, and was paired with a R1 Yahama. The best thing about that was we had nearly identical times. It showed 10.83, but I am sure those things are not accurate. Anyway, help me out this morning will ya?
