On my Century 3045 I had noticed 3 wires under the fender on the "drivers side" that are in the wiring bundle for the back lights that are not used. Two of the wires have male ends and one has a female end. Curious I put a meter to these wires. Of course the two male wires were ground wires. The female wire was hot when the tractor was switched in reverse. How cool is that I thought. Built in reverse light wiring. Immediately visions of super bright /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif reverse lights went dashing through my head.

So before I put the new BIG, BRIGHT reverse lights on my questions are-
What fuse does this wire run through? What wattage lights can I run on this wiring? Do all the Century/Bransons have this standard and has anybody used it yet?

Chuck, would the Zetor 4341 also have these wires? I was thinking of installing a back-up alarm on mine. This would make the job easy.
