Hi all, I went to a technical exam with my Kubota L3200 just to find out my brake lights were not working. I checked workshop manual and have found it covered. I am attaching image from the manual. Then I went under the tractor to check it and I have found out that the part of the component marked as (1) - brake light switch is missing. Recently I did some deep plowing and I probably have sit with tractor deep onto the soil and have pulled out the part of the component. I am attaching image so you can see what is missing. Its not the entire brake light switch that I have lost but just a connector - piece of wiring with black cap on the one side of the wires and white connector on the other side of the wires. Do you think this switch would work if I just find some random couple of wires and connect the ends together?

looks like you'll need 2 'jumper wires', each with 1/4" female insulated spade connectors on the ends.
after you make and confirm it works, decide HOW to secure the wiring so it can't be ripped off the tractor
OR
make a second set NOW ( then you'll never need them....... ) ;)

It seems strange that connector went missing and nothing was damaged in the process...and no bent terminals.
Well it has plugins (little sockets) on both sides so I guess it takes less force to pull it out from the sockets then to break something.
