suggestions on where to purchase a adaptor to use with flat 4 pin
plug. Have purchased a set of magnetic towing lights to mount on my hay wagons, added some new fields for hay this year and must use a busy state road for access (NY Seaway Trail), trying to make it as safe as possible
when towing these wagons with my tractor
Book says it is a " hella 7 pin trailer socket' which is standard equip on my 4110

It wouldn't be hard to make one. Just need a test light to find which pins do what on the tractor plug. Wire up a mating 4 pin plug with a short piece of flat 4 cable to a 7 pin Hella male and plug it in. You only need to find the left turn, right turn, tail lamp, and ground to wire it in.
I believe the Hella plug has round pins vs flat pin. In either case the site below has the adapters.
Limbergertrailers.com has a ready made 7 pin to 4 pin plug #725 for $8.25

On my 4110 it is not a standard plug. This is a link to another thread about these plugs

This is what mine looks like...

Same as mine. according to the thread you found, there is no chance of getting a adaptor, looks like I'll be doing some wiring this weekend
THANKS to ALL for your replies

I beleive Kioti makes 7 pin plug (male) that fits Mahindra's plug--I got one from Wallace--I haven't hooked it up yet. I wanted it, so it would charge my dump trailer when I was using it with my tractor.

I got tired of looking for an adapter for my 4110 and took the original socket out and put a 7 blade RV socket instead. Had to move the location because of the fuel tank. My Anderson dump trailer and my flat trailer that I haul my tractor on both have the 7 RV, as does my F250. I did not attach anything to my brake circuit, am not going to put a controller on the tractor, but I did energize the Batt. + circuit so my dump battery would charge. On rare occasion I pull either trailer on the road and wanted all light functions and this is a snap now.

I have the male end of that plug in stock, if it helps anybody. The 4 pin would have to bewired off from that. I would locate the wires on the back of the tractor receptical, and splice the 4 pin flat to the wires before the receptical. Good luck with it.

The Hella site shows your tractor plug is P/N 4901. The male plug that fits it is P/N 4902. You'd have to use one of these plugs and wire your own adapter plug to get down to a 4 pin flat or change the tractor plug to a standard 7 pin automotive type as someone else said. The only other option is what Galen said and wire in a 4 pin flat pigtail into the tractor wiring of your tractor plug.

My son was kind to me this morning and beat me out to the barn and changed out the hella plug to a 7 pin RV socket, already had the adapter for the RV socket. The magnetic tow lights worked great, pulled 8 wagons today and traffic cooperated, wife was happy because she did not have too direct traffic :eek: ,guess I should cancel that extra life insurance policy for her :rolleyes:
Thanks again for all the replies

I have a 2014 Mahindra 5010 with the European style trailer socket. I was debating on whether to rewire a standard 7-pin rv plug until I found this item on etrailer.com. Works perfectly....... Plugs into the factory Mahindra socket and adapts down to a standard 4-pin flat which is widely used in the US. The description says it's for a Land Rover 7-pin to a 4-pin flat but it's the same plug that fits my Mahindra tractor. Hope this helps

I've got a 2555 and I was about to replace the Euro plug with a standard 7 pin. That's just what I've been looking for. Don't know why Mahindra doesn't swap out the plugs on all tractors coming into the states.

Not sure why TYM uses this Euro plug on tractors built for the USA. Wouldn't be hard to install the correct ones when they assemble them at the factory, or leave it off and have it installed at the final assembly plant.

I believe that euro is the same plug the green and blue guys use.

But why. We do not have any trailers with Euro plugs here, or none that I have seen.

I've run across a lot of guys looking for adapters for this plug across various brands. My question has always been why a plug this popular isn't easier to find adapters for.

The rest of the world use tractors as a form of transportation on public roads and the tractors are built for a global market, so we could be the one with the oddball plug. (Metric system?). I have been able to buy the male plug from my Deere dealer, believe we found it in the baler parts catalog.
