Deutsch HD 14 Pin Female Machine Side to Delphi 2 Pin Harness Attachment Side - 6 Output - Skid Steer Genius

From our point of view, the 7-pin approach on many branded attachments feels less like “helpful tech” and more like a barrier that keeps attachments locked to one machine family. We built a test harness, worked with a customer to validate real-world use, documented the results, and then demand exploded once those results hit forums. That’s why we keep a growing fitment/notes database and back every purchase with support until your setup is running correctly.

This harness ships pre-assembled in the standard/common Bobcat-style 14-pin layout (works for many Case/Kubota/New Holland/Gehl/Yanmar/Mustang scenarios). If you run a Cat D-series or certain John Deere configurations, you’ll do a simple pin move as outlined below.

Cat D-Series: Move Pin G → Pin A and Pin H → Pin J. That’s the full change.

John Deere: Move Pin B → Pin A. Many owners prefer wiring the machine to the common layout so attachments don’t need to be repinned repeatedly. Since 2020, a ground jumper is tucked inside the 14-pin plug—open the connector, remove the shrink as needed, and seat the spare ground socket into Position A. You’ll then have ground at A & B, which is fine for most uses (Cat D-series is the exception).

Every kit includes a wiring diagram and clear install guidance. Pins are factory-crimped, and we include a basic pin tool so you can make the required moves without frustration.

We’ve shipped a large number of these harnesses, and that volume has allowed us to build detailed notes on what works, where, and why. Also worth mentioning: some competing “look-alike” harnesses exist, but without the application knowledge and troubleshooting support behind them. We do provide that support.

How does it work?
Many Bobcat® branded 7-pin attachments place an electronic module on the attachment itself. For a lot of common attachments, that extra layer isn’t necessary. Our bypass harness skips that module and runs the machine’s signals straight to the attachment solenoids—bringing the attachment back to a simpler, standard-style wiring approach. The machine-side end plugs into your 14-pin harness, and the solenoid-side leads connect directly to the valves.

One limitation to understand: your loader must have enough available outputs to run the attachment’s functions. Example: certain Kubota SVL75/SVL90/SVL95 machines (2016 and earlier) are limited in how many circuits they provide, which can be fine for brooms but restrictive for more complex tools. Kubota later added button control options; if you want an easier add-control solution, take a look at the Genius Super Controllers.

Bobcat® Cold Planers: Some planers include seven solenoids (six for control plus one for diverting flow). If your planer uses seven solenoids, you’ll want the specific planer harness instead: click here. If your planer does not use the 7-solenoid layout, this harness may be suitable.

This harness is built to drive up to six solenoids. On many Bobcat® attachments, six solenoids does not always equal six distinct functions (some functions use paired solenoids). If you’re unsure, check your valve/solenoid count before ordering or contact us and we’ll help you confirm.

This is not a Bobcat® product, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by Bobcat. Our harness is designed as an independent, external bypass solution. It does not alter your machine’s internal systems and will not harm the loader or attachment controls when installed as directed. The harness simply routes control signals directly to the solenoids, reducing complexity and, in many cases, improving reliability by eliminating unnecessary components.  Fewer parts typically means fewer failure points and less downtime.
