Hello, I have a L355SS Kutoba and I purchased a new voltage regulator. When I went to Change the regulator, I noticed I had some wires broken going into the connector on the harness side. Does anyone know where I may be able to purchase a replacement connector. I do not need the complete harness just the 6 wire connector. I would also need the part number. Thank You for any help You may provide....

It's hard to say what manufacturer Kubota bought this regulator from. Probably some China firm and to get just the terminals as built would be almost impossible unless you can find a supplier or aftermarket manufacturer who specializes in terminals. ( Goggle)Kubota Dealers will sell you the completed harness to match the new regulator but good luck on the terminals because they are not always listed as a seperate part number from the harness. If you are handy and have a heat gun or borrow your wife's hair dryer, I'd slide heat shrink tubes over the wires, crimp male to female disconnects on the ends, tape and slide the tube to cover the tape and heat until you see the ends shrink down tight on the outter jacket of the wires and go on with life. If the regulator fails again you simply slice open your heat shrink connectors and replace generically. :)
