Hi,
I have a 2017 T6.145 AutoCommand.
It is currently stuck in the lower of two gears and won’t drive past about 10m/h
I have a 2019 T7 AC and I know by pressing two buttons I can lock her in low range, this T6 however does not have this option to lock it and is still displaying speed to up to 50k.
Any advice welcome?
Thanks

Get a diagnostic lap top on it, no point guessing.
My T6 had the shakes a few years ago, was fearing the worst, diagnosis revealed two sensors gone, relatively cheap fix.
 
Dont suppose you can remember what the values for A and B clutches were. Should be a similar value and take a similar time to calibrate.
The fact that it calibrated suggest in theory the mechanics should be fine however a buggered clutch pack can still calibrate but not drive. If one has a vastly different value to the other or takes a while to calibrate your trouble could be there.

Will do it again tomorrow and record it. Thanks

We have had a mechanic from dealership out and plugged it in and no faults appeared on his computer. He believes the clutch/trans is okay and that the problem is the tractor is lacking HP. He tested the turbo and changed fuel filters but to no avail. He wants to put it on dyno but I am reluctant, it's two hours away by car.
The tractor is just lacking power, I don't feel the gear change or see it in the revs but he tells me it's there.
Any one have any other ideas on why this tractor is not producing the HP it should be, 3000 hours or so.
