I have an almost brand new New Holland dozer blade that came with an old John Deere skid steer. It works fine on that machine and I want to use it on my C232 (with an all important enclosed heated and air conditioned cab). All I need is a 12V connection to power the solenoid and a button in the cab to activate it. It can't take too much power (after all it is just a solenoid and will only be use intermittently). Do you think I could pull power from the cigarette lighter? Most automotive lighters are fused at 5amps, but I can't see a fuse for the lighter in my machine. The JD machine is connected with 18gauge wire, so I wouldn't think the dozer is drawing much over 5-10 amps.
