Perfect, just what I was looking for. Thank you so much.

So I think I am just about set with the JD 2955 wiring. I even got an external Tachometer to work well with the signal wire coming from the sensor. The only question I have is what is the average RPM for the tractor at idle? I assume it is around 700 RPM but can't find anywhere that states...

Since I read that the JD 2955 has many problems with the circuit board of the main bus burning out and that was most likely why the prior owner rewired a ton of stuff over fixing it, I also decided to bypass it entirely, and create new bus lines to make everything work. In the picture, you can...

So going to run a tach direct from the alternator. Heard that is the best way to get it on a diesel tractor. Not sure which side to attach it but if anyone knows that would help, otherwise, I can find online. I assume it is the hot side where the battery is attached +. Thanks

Thx Tx Jim. That helps a lot

So got the lights working, thank you all for the help. Rewired just about everything. Have a question still. I believe the circuit board was fried and the prior owner rewired everything which was stupid but cheap. Rather than mess with it replacement-wise, I reran all new busses and have...

That helps a lot Roadworthy, thank you for the info. That may work. Will let you know.

So there are two wires going to the light. One is the hot, the second is the return to complete the circuit. Those are there and no light. However, on the harness, there is also a green ground wire as a third wire that is similar to the return except that is supposed to be grounded to metal...

Ok Ok I figured it may need a ground. I will try that and see if it works. Thanks

I have a JD 2955 where I replaced the lights on the fenders with 36-Watt equivalent PAR36 12 volt bulbs. The problem is the wiring harness was rerun by the last owner so it doesn't go to a switch to turn on, they are always on and I will fix that. However, I have a hot line going to the lights...
