New B2650 Third function valve help

[350ute]

Okay so I have a B2650 with cab and am adding the factory third function valve to run a grapple. The hydraulics seem pretty self explanatory, but trying to figure out how the electrical harness hooks into the tractor.
Wondering if anybody has installed one and could point me in the direction to go where I might to find the wire harness to plug into.
Thanks for your help.

I installed the factory third function valve under my b2650 and I don't remember anything special or difficult about the wiring.... kind of a non-event so to speak but if memory serves I tapped intothe 12 V going to the cigarette lighter in the back right hand corner. All in all it was an incredibly easy install I don't remember it taking more than a couple hours but go ahead and pull the back right wheel off right away it'll save you some time

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking there was a plug that the harness went to. There are two plugs that make me believe the harness goes in series somewhere. Each plug has two 10 or 12 gauge wires and a couple 18-20 gauge and each plug has like colored wires. That's what make me think they go in series. Have included a picture of the plug. I'm just trying to be careful, me and electricity don't get along to well. Seems like it should be easy, maybe I'm missing something. I appreciate your help. Thanks again.

Mine was a factory 3rd function valve and a seem to remember that they were just bare copper ends, just wired it into 12v switch power and off I went. I'll go out and look later. Those ends coming off the solenoid valve or the FEL buttons?

Just looked at mine. No factory ends on them they were just bare wires that I installed my own Deutsch connectors on and heat shrinked others. I have no idea where those plugs yours have are supposed to go but you appear to be correct they look like they are supposed to connect inline somewhere. Maybe the given lengths could help narrow down your search some based on what they can reach or not reach for that matter. Of course if they aren't exactly model specific then they may be of no help at all...much like me in this case....no help at all : )

350ute,
The picture you are showing is the opposite plug Male to female?
They would connect together!
Show the rest and where did the kit come from?

Unless they are supposed to go inline on a connector already on the tractor

Deesil, I was thinking the same thing, that you take apart a plug somewhere and put this between.

Good thought, hadn't caught that!

I was able to get the new joystick installed, run the wires through the hole in the cab floor, put the valve on and hooked up the harness to the valve and joystick. The connectors in question have to be about 20" from where the joystick wires come through the cab floor.

Took the right wheel off hoping would shed a little daylight to any wires that may be under there, to no avail. Might have to order a work shop manual, maybe it would help show the wiring a little better.

I like to be able to do things for myself, maybe should have had the dealer install, but don't have any experience with them on service. I thought getting the factory set up would be easier

Mine was kubota as well and didn't have those connections on it but mine is a Rops and yours is a cab so that might be the difference. I'd try and get to the wiring under the steering wheel (good call on the shop manual it's well worth it) and look for that connection.
