Thank you very much sir! Had to remove the first two blue dividers also. 5/16 wrench to unset the fuse box from the frame and 10mm for the black wire on the battery.

Thanks for your video as it helped with my install on my new X370 today! I had to remove the two fuse box screws and two blue fuse dividers for access also. In addition, I pulled out the wire harness clip from the hole in the frame by using needle nose pliers to release it. I had to figure out which fuse block hole to use and how to orient the short red wire end into the hole. I lined up the wire end with fuse location. When I heard the click I knew the wire end was inserted correctly. I tested the power port by charging a 12V mini Harbor Freight flash light and it worked! I also wrapped the short red wire with electrical tape in case it started rubbing against the edge of the black frame. The lawn tractor looks better with the 12V power port vs. the blank hole cover. How is your grass catcher as I am not sure if I am going to get a grass catcher or mulching kit. I can't be the only subscriber?
