Ordered some led's... kinda corny looking but these are the only ones that have measurements that would fit the housings.... I THINK.... cross ur fingers for me

I have a work light that comes in real handy just in case I need to mow one over at night. It's not one of the fancy LED ones but it's Pretty bright. I was just thinking it's about time to get it out. I just seen a cat spray my tire. I'm going to hook this bad boy up!!!

Now in Japan, the YM Series GREEN Yanmars are called "Tree Frogs".

Do you know what they call the RED ones? Shooting Tigers! Shooting as in launching or springing forward at a fast rate.

See we can indeed keep on topic here. LOL

I use to call my Yanmars Margaret, Lucille, Viginia, ect....

Will update once I get to try em in the dark.

You need to replace that tractor--It shakes the camera too much.

A 1.1 L 2-cyl diesel thumper is shaky? Who would have thought?

Update, one of my fancy new led's has already failed.... will wait and see if the second one fails to before deciding whether to replace w the same or try another route.

Have you taken the LED out and bench tested to ensure it quit? I've found that vibration and/or heat kills LEDs over time. Or another thing is a spike in voltages. A small resistor will extend the LED life to years, but it will slightly loose some of it's brilliance.

Swapped it from right to left... enough testing for me...

Probably cheap solder joints.
