MF8160 3 point issues

jeudi 1 juin 2017

Like the title says, having issues with the three point on the MF8160. Had an issue years ago where you could only lower it with the fender buttons, turns out the sensor on the rock shaft was bad. Now it won’t lower again, but unlike before no codes wha so ever are showing up, may have to move the rocker switch to lower 3-5 times before it does, doesn’t do it all the time, but is doing it more often as the day went by.

This is the same control that New Holland used in their tractors, a large dial for depth marked from 0-9, three small knobs above that, left one for lower speed or locking it, middle one for lift height and right one for draft or position control with the rocker switch for up and down between the large and small knobs. 

When it doesn’t work, no codes flash and the lower light doesn’t turn on either. I pulled it apart tonight, got the rocker switch out, got the rocker switch apart and absolutely no issues with it, connected my multimeter to the lower terminals and probably cycled it 25 times and never had a failure, so the question is is there any way to tell if the issue is in the module itself or in the tractor brain box? If the module, would Agtronix be able to fix it or should we take the Vaseline when we order it from Agco?

I have a lot of beans left to plant, south of us where I have a little over 200 acres left to plant has gotten about twice the rain as we have, lots of water standing around yet, have around 150 I can plant around home if I can get the Hiniker in the ground. Corn could have been done today, but decided to wait another day as the rain won’t be here for another 24 hours and the 32 acres left is a little sticky yet.
