Default what is this connector for?

On my TN65 on the left side of the ROPS there is a connector bolted on. Is this accessory power or break light connector for a trailer?

Maybe a connection for a rear work light.

Welcome to TBN ! I have 2 elecrical connectors (one on each side of the ROPS) on my NH TC29DA. It is my belief that these connectors are for rear working lights. At least that is how I am using them. I have one light aimed down for ground and attachment observation and one light aimed up to watch for ROPS-tree limb interactions. Jay

Not sure what you are looking at. There is a 7 pin trailer wiring harness connector. There is also a 4 pin auxiliary power connector. Both are found on TN tractors.

My DX29 has live electrical power to a cigarette lighter style connector on the lower right side of the ROPS. It's live whenever the tractor is running. If yours are just two wire connectors, you can check with a meter or test light to see if they have live power. I'm betting they do, in which case you can connect whatever you want.

Rick is most likely right as these are the only connectors on the left hand side of the ROPS. The rear work light comes standard on the TN and the 12v plug is on the right hand side of the seat in the 3pt control area of the open station TN's.

there are 7 pins on it so I am guessing it is the connector for trailer lights.
