Hello, bought an used 516 from -16 with 9500hours on it.
Ive only driven it 10hours since it came home in july, all 10 without problems.
But 3days ago when the tractor had stayed untouched for a couple days, it took me 4sec of cranking before it started.

Got a fault code of 1D.1.07 , something about that crank speed sensor didint get the right speed becouse of too long cranking..
But the tractor started and was fine all day.

Next morning same problem, but this time ut cranked 4sec, started and idled on 800rpm for a second before turning of.
I changed the pre filter and manually pumped as much i could before pressure got too heavy. Same problem still, crank 4sec, start, idle 1sec, die. Did it 20times.. i then changed the o ring in the filter housing after reading here, got it manually pumped and after 3 tries, it started. I tought i fixed the problem. Drove all day, turned it off on tge evening abd tried start it again, no problem..

And then today again, took me 3 times to get it started and then only by pumping gas pedal immideatly when it fired up.. then no problem rest of day...

Where to seek for solutions, o ring in fuel suction pipe?
Crank shaft sensor( fault code comes maybe every 3rd try abd saying too long cranking)
Changing main fuel filter?

I found the problem, it was one of the engine speed sensors, i disconected the one at the front, and then i didint start at all.
I then plugged it back in and disconected the one closer cab, i got a fault code when cranking but tractor started and everything good..

All means that the one closer cab was short circuted and therefore shut down tractor as soon it started.

Ordered a new one, but have to live with fault code and longer cranking till its changed but im glad its working.
