Adding led rear lights

[rkh Kubota]

I have theL3302DT and want to add led to the rear for back blading snow when it's dark. Do I hook it up to the lights or the fuse box? Also a separate switch or hooked to existing lights?

There are plenty of ways to achieve this just have to research on what you want.
Just adding rear lights I would add a switch off the work light wiring and to the lights.

I’ve added a aux fuse block to run several different things.
Always run fuses and proper wire sizes. Learn about amp ratings. Don’t skimp and risk burning down your tractor.

What size wire should I use?

All depends on what lights you plan on using, and that will also depend how you wire them.

Have you done any wiring work before? Have any tools?

I would buy a good quality set of LED lights (rigid or Black oak etc)
they will come with wiring/fuse/relay/switch.
(wires directly to the battery)

I'm sure plenty of guys will say cheap chinese Amazon LEDS are great.... but that has not been my experience.
I buy quality. Buy once... Cry once

I am a fan of these, not cheap but.....There should be a plug under your left fender, these will plug right into.

The tractor should already be prewired for work lights.

Since I'm just a simple guy with no electrical degree, is the work light option in pink the available hook up for lights? My manual says there's Accessories outlet, but I couldn't find one. Is it only avaliable on the HST(mines manual transmission)?

 

[JasonW]

Look underneath the rear fender. Cannot remember which side it’s on. The wiring should be tied around the flasher wiring. Thats the accessory outlet.

 

[OntheRidge]

Should be left side.

I went with a light bar that plugs into my cigarette lighter. I attach it to the ROPS.

Got the rear led lights and am attaching across the ROPS, with a metal between the ROPS, hooking up to a switch and online fuse. My question is where to hook up for power?

Is the wiring on inside of fender hooked to the rear lights? I didn't want to have those lights on the same time the led lights are on.

Easy enough to check if you've found the accessory outlet. See if it has power with the key on and rear lights off.
