electrical socket

Gents

there is a two pin socket mounted under the platform of my 555. Just wondering what it would have been for?

Thanks

RE:electrical socket

For a seat warmer/heater????  Or trailed implement road lights???

John I would say it's for lights on a trailer or trailed implement. Alan

John,

Is the wire going to the socket hooked to a two way switch? if so the 555 was a big tractor in its time and may have been used on a chopper and the two way hookup would have been for an electric motor on the spout to turn the spout. Just a thought...

 If I would have had a closer look in the parts manual I would have answered my own question lol. It shows up in the parts book and is tied in to the wiring for the lights so as was suggested it must have been for trailer or implement lights. I didn't think that was of much concern back in the day.
