STOP, Service Alert and Information Indicators

NOTE: All STOP, Service Alert, and Information Indicators are accompanied by an informative message, diagnostic trouble code, and/or fault description shown on the CommandCenter display.

STOP Indicator (A): Light flashes and alarm sounds continuously. A serious malfunction has occurred, requiring immediate attention or the tractor will be damaged.

IMPORTANT: Engine shuts down automatically if STOP signal is received when operator is out of the seat for longer than three seconds and the transmission control is in PARK. CommandCenter display can be reset by cycling key switch.

Immediately stop operations, reduce engine speed to idle, then shut down engine and turn key "ON" to observe CommandCenter display for problem identification. In the example to the right, "Transmission oil pressure low" (B) identifies the problem. It may be necessary to access the stored codes, see Using Diagnostics, Stored Codes and CAN Statistics. Correct problem before restarting.

When control unit detects a malfunction or condition "out of range", a diagnostic trouble code containing the control unit (C) followed by an industry standard number is displayed. Numbers to the left of the decimal indicate the malfunction (D) and numbers to the right of decimal indicate the condition (E).

See Diagnostic Trouble Code Section of this Operator's Manual for possible actions an operator can take. If situation cannot be corrected or if code is not in Diagnostic Trouble Code section contact your John Deere dealer.

If a code is not in the Operator's Manual contact your local John Deere dealer. When either a Service Alert or Information Indicator is displayed, place tractor in park and shut off engine.

Service Alert Indicator (F): Light flashes and alarm sounds five times indicating a performance or operational problem has been detected, which needs to be resolved as soon as possible. Continued operations can cause a Service Alert to escalate into a STOP indicator. If appropriate corrective action is not taken soon (serviced, repaired, operated in a different manner), a significant reduction in performance and/or machine damage to will occur.

Information (INFO) Indicator (G): Light comes on continuously and alarm sounds for two seconds, indicating a fault condition. Tractor operations can continue without damage; but, performance of some functions may be degraded. Operating in a different manner may correct and clear the out of range condition.

Some Service Alerts (H) and Information Indicators can be "acknowledged" and cleared by pressing the Select Switch on the CommandCenter. The display will return to a normal mode. Continue tractor function, if condition still exists, the diagnostic trouble code may reappear later. Restart engine to verify active diagnostic trouble code still exists before contacting your John Deere dealer.
