Does anyone have photos of the wiring plan under the instrument panel??

Bird dogs are great, until a mouse nests in your BX24 Radiator.
He tore off the panel under the dash, ripped every wire and still did not get the mouse.

a mess of 20gauge wires, i tried soldering what i could. seems like everything functions except the Headlights. I color matched wire by wire, connections are as good as I can get them.

one wire remains without a mate - a solid orange wire - which matches the solid orange and solid black coming out of the headlights. i want my headlights back.

one good thing out of this ordeal - i got a panel that works now, Kubota upgraded the plastic/wire mesh panel into a panel that is supported by two ridged metal frames, so its tight now, hopefully tight enough to keep the dog away from the wires.

Photos Greatly Appreciated, i need a wiring diagram. Can I get component wires or do i need the whole tractor wiring harness which is $220 and packed in the tractor by tiny hands.

while i'm at it i plan on wiring up ROPS lights

I think you may be the only person I ever heard of who needs to protect his tractor from his dog.:D:D Sorry I can't help with your problem, though.

the son of a gun is relentless when it comes to getting his prey. time to build a barn - with heavy doors.

As for tiny hands - I dont think you need tiny hands to work under there. I have taken my dash board off all the way once. Lots of room that way. Ill take a gander at mine today for the orange wire and see if that what should be on the lights.

You know that there is extra power wires for rops light near the back of the tractor ?

I had to tell this story to my wife. Sorry to hear about your troubles, but it did give us a chuckle. Our dogs have torn up a lot of things. Just never a wiring harness (yet).

Good luck.

I replaced the harness on a BX24 it is not that bad but you have to remove the dash and fenders plan about 5hrs or so. Nothing compared to the wire harness on a truck.

Let me know what your looking for if not in this pic. The harness I'm pulling just shows orange to orange on pin #3 going through that mod plug. Must be somewhere else your looking.

Good luck my dogs just finished digging a big hole filled with water thinking theres some animal in there.
