2. Press and hold the COUNTER key (A) while turning the monitor-controller ON.

3. Continue to hold the COUNTER key and press the PLUS key (B) until the digital display shows the desired channel.

4. Release the key and view the switch state indication as follows:

   Diagnostic Channel	Function	Display Indication Switch Closed	Display Indication Switch Open
   024	Drop Floor Switch	00 (Drop floor up)	12 (with tone) (Drop floor down)
   025	Knife Switch	12 (with tone) (Knives up)	00 (Knives down)

5. If the switch state indication does not match the actual switch state, then perform diagnostics:

   • Turn the monitor-controller OFF. Turn the tractor ignition key to the OFF position. Remove the key.
   • Check for the correct wire connections. (See Wire Harness Diagram —Baler in this section.)
   • Check wire harness for cuts or breaks.
   • Check harness connectors for damaged (pushed back) terminals.
   • Check sensor adjustment. Ensure that the sensor face is 3—8 mm (0.118—0.315 in) from the sensing target.
   • Replace switch if necessary. (See your John Deere dealer or qualified service provider.)
