sprayer wiring

redhawk · Apr 27, 2002

hi guys, i'm looking to run wiring for a pull behind sprayer on my bx2200. the b7500 i used to have had a place in the harness in the back of the tractor that made it easy to do.
i've been looking but this doesn't seem to be the case with the bx. do i need to run wiring directly from the battery? or is there another way. thanks in advance to all

What I do with my sprayer is tie into the tail light wiring, which means I just use the light switch on the dash to turn the sprayer on and off. I have a two-wire trailer hitch connector that I use.
I see that the next tractor I get (JD485 all wheel steer) already has a cigarette-lighter type plug available with a switch to make such attachments easy to use.

I did this last year. There should be two wires under the seat - red & black. One has a male and other female plug-in type connectors on them. You can put the appropriate connectors on the wires from the sprayer and simply plug into those. Although there was a switch on the sprayer already, I wired one into the circuit up by the seat so that I could turn it on and off without having to get off the tractor.

rlw, that sounds like the setup i had on my b7500, i looked but didn't find that setup. but now that i know it's there i'll do an intensive search. thanks
