Auxilary Electrical Plug

[jbunkley]

On my 3510 there is an auxiliary electrical (female) plug behind the seat above the PTO. I assume it's like an RV plug on a truck. Problem is...I can't find anything to match it.

Does anyone know where male plugs can be purchased to fit this. One thought I had was to cut it off and wire it into an RV (female) plug.

Will this void my warranty? I asked the dealer...he just scratched his head and said I could order one for you

I don't know if it will void your warranty. But, if you do decide to swap the plugs, keep us posted!

 

[jbunkley]

Will do.

I'll call my dealer tomorrow to make sure he understands what I'm wanting to.

Undoutably this a Korean type of electrical plug.

I needed to pull my 12' trailer about a mile down the road so I needed lights and 4 ways. I took some thin galvanized wire and cut it in short lengths. Then pushed it into the end of some 14ga stranded wire and soldered it together. I then plugged the galv wire into the connector, bent it over, wire tied it to the tractor plug and taped it. Ran the wires to a 6 way plug that I use on my trailers. Maybe in 20-30 years I might cut off the tractor plug and hard wire it!
As luck would have it as I was driving down a back road a county cop came up behind me. I had lights on and 4 ways. I waived him on by and he kept going. I was legal, my Branson has full lights and SMV placard!

I had asked this same question some time ago. Didn't find any answers. the best my dealer could do was order me the remote hydraulics kit that includes a 6 way connector.

DO you still have part number and pricing for that remote hydraulics kit ?
I'm interested in it.

I think my dealer referred to that plug as a "European" connector, I may try to track it down as that.

 

[MicroPilot]

No part number. But the plug comes with the factory optional single rear remote kit. I believe the cost was around $400.00 plus installation.

I know this is an old thread and there is at least one other with the same question.
I think I might have stumbled on something today, check out (Google for) Pollack 11-933p.
No guaranty, I haven't looked really close, but I saw something VERY much like this on the back of a new McCormick a couple of weeks ago and nearly asked the dealer's parts guy to get me "that bit".

BTW, I first saw it listed as a Chrysler part and since I have a Dodge Durango I will probably squirm under there, trace back from the 7 pin trailer socket and see if I can pull out a short section that kinda/sorta looks like this.
Then see if it plugs into the back of the tractor.
Then explain to SWMBO (she who must be obeyed) why she can't pull a horse trailer for a few days (-:
I'll probably get caught with the tractor backed up to a horse trailer for testing anyway.... hmmm.
Excuse development is already underway.

Nice!

Let us know what you find.

Here's a pic of mine. I have never checked voltages on the plug, guess I will soon. Its the plug on the right mid section of pic.

Nice!

Unfortunately..... )-:
The one under the Durango is WAY bigger, looks right in the picture but "not to scale".

One thing I might do is to take pics and measurements, print 'em out and drop in on Pollack.
They're "almost local" and I get close enough to there quite frequently.
If I can get hold of the right guy on a "walk in" visit.... who knows, I might be able to scrounge up a couple of (opposite gender) "samples" just to get me out of there (-:
If so I will get part numbers and post them here.

I could go for the McCormick part, but that is probably a whole kit.
Worth pricing out though.

To all that want to know the plug on the back of the tractor is commonly known as a "7 Pin N Type 12V Trailer / Caravan Towing Plug". Do a quick google and you will find all types of overseas sites offering them for sale. I have a Century 2535 that i ordered with the optional remotes so that I would have the plug when needed. You can guess my supprise when I finally needed to use it.
You basically have two options 1) Order opposite end for the plug installed and make an adaptor. 2) Cut the SOB off and put a normal US 7 blade RV connector from your local Autoparts store in its place. I went with the latter (less expensive option) and it works fine.

 

[MicroPilot]

Good info, but this thread is actually about the type of plug your 7 pin Type N plugs into on the tractor wiring.

Cut back that plug and get a pair of ANDERSON units.
The smaller series handles about 50 amps.
Same plugs in larger series are used for 2-300 amp electric fork lifts as well as towtrucks for boosting.
Very rugged well designed units!
Most battery shops and auto parts can supply them and also EBay is a good source.

I haven't taken the pics, I haven't taken measurements )-:

I HAVE driven past the town that Pollack is in - TODAY ! {Sunday}

New weeks' resolution; take measurements and pics, carry them around (-:
