I want to hook up a rear work light on my mf1540.
I found the holes where the oem light is supposed to mount. There is one needle connector behind the mounting place and two maybe three on the other side? What are all of them for? Is there an option for another light?

Also. My tractor came with a plug with 4 or 5 wires coming out of it. The plug was in the utility box behind the seat.
I found where that is supposed to connect. The female part is under the left fender. What is this connection for?

Thx

I am curious about the harness as well. My 1742 came with the same loose make harness as well. It would be great if it is a harness for work guts as I would love to install a few LEDs on my tractor

The closest Massey dealer didn't help me much.
He didn't know what the supplied plug was for. I guess I'll have to get my meter out and test the wires and see if any of them are keyed 12, or work with the lights

My dealer told me it was for a fender mounted radio.

That's a weird place for a radio

I think I recall seeing a picture of the installation somewhere on masseys web site.

It's for a trailer hook up. The female part of the plug is behind the seat on the outside right under the left rop bar
