Hello, we have all the hardware needed but cannot locate the plug or wire to connect the beeper to. The kit is lvb25728.

Another thread here indicated the dealer could print out the instructions, but I visited them today and after 3 different guys huddled and made a few valiant efforts they could not access the installation instructions. Would really appreciate it if anyone out there has installed a reverse alarm or back up camera and knows which plug or wire to connect to. It must be somewhere close to the rear of the machine I presume. Thanks.

"three different guys" at the dealer.. were any of them Deere mechanics?
I don't have anything to go on, but look close at the wiring harness at the rear and see if there is a connector folded and zip-tied to the wire bundle/harness. Hope you find it.

Curious, what use you have to put the reverse alarm on the JD ?? Children.. adults... snow plowing or custom work you are doing ??

They all were mechanics. These are relatively complicated tractors with a large number of connectors in many locations and as your question emphasizes there is not a lot of demand for the reverse alarm so i was not surprised they could not help much. However, I am very confident that someone on this forum knows and can help please.

After scouring the wiring harness diagrams in the technical service manual for an hour we identified the connector.
