JCB fastrac hydraulics

[fastfish]

anybody know the blink codes for 2170 fastrac spools working but not man mudguard buttons or man in cab button nor up or down on panel ,Bosch I think , one flash pause then five flashes tia

 

[s~~t shoveller]

Will be either the position sensor or the lower link pin thats the problemunless it's the wiring chafed on the axle.cant remember the blink codes.sorry.will think....nearly sure it will be one or both pins and or position sensor though.

 

[fastfish]

I have disconnected lower link sensors in the fuse box area no difference the position sensor was next job

Decipher blink code as follows-all blink codes consist of two digits,the led flashes the same number of times as the digit,eg six flashes for 6.it is therefore necessary to count the flashes following a long pause and then count the flashes following a short pause .eg error code 36 shows as - long pause - three flashes- short pause - six flashes,and then keeps on repeating,so what your saying earlier is that it's code 15? If your sure that's correct then it says rear buttons not working,open circuit from pin 9 to button feeds,faulty buttons.i would look under those mudguard bits!

Thank sshoveller will do tomorrow,does it reset its self or is there some way of doing that.where do you get that info from

 

[s~~t shoveller]

Will reset every time you turn ignition off then back on I think.so as soon as fault is found it will work,just looked out my paperwork from when I had a problem a long time ago!five years or so ,was on 3185 but pretty sure it will be the same,Bosch panel looks the same on my drawings as the panel in 2170.if you pm your e mail I will try and e mail it to you but I'm not that good so can't promise I will manage it!

Were all the buttons working before,I thought maybe it worked ok with one switch down?and then packed up when two were gone?not sure though ...look where the wires join on the right of the top link bracket between the axle and the chassis /spool valve coupler mounting plate bit too.had a spot of bother there before now.

 

[fastfish]

Yep faulty button on mudguard disconnected all ok thanks

 

[s~~t shoveller]

Ah,good ,glad to hear you got sorted.how do you like your 2170?have you had other fassys before that one?we have several and I like them but they are getting a bit dated in places now,starting to need power beyond and other bits and bobs which they won't do,but ride is supreme .want a 4000 when they get to my price range ,a long while yet!

Got 2135 on a knight sprayer 4ws ideal for me 2170 remapped to 200 up handles a 6 furrow do 120 set at 18 inches with a dowdeswell front turnover press easily does all corn carting and is manoeverable enough with 4ws for tending raking and baling looking for a 3230 not ptronic so i2170 can be put on lighter duties and the sprayer will stay on 2135 but my handler is due to be changed as well oh dear

Pykett s have astickshift one coming in,no price though,prob arm and a leg money.we used to use a front linkage converted dowdeswell swing over on our 3185 s.went well.use 3185 s for spraying now,3220 baling wrapping,8250 on mowers,3185 ted and rake and hedgecutter all winter,bought quadtrac for land work now though.goodluck,will help you whenever I can!gota lad who can get me most of the paper work for calibration and setups if your struggling.try not to bother him too much though but he's ace.

Don't suppose you know the flash code for 3.3 on a 3185 do you @s~~t shoveller ?

 

[s~~t shoveller]

Will have a look.31 and 32 are left and right draught pins so think prob position Sensor.

 

[s~~t shoveller]

Hi again,sorry that's not right.33 is "battery switched voltage low,below11.5v".not sure exactly where that sends you,battery box I guess....can you put a booster starter charger on it for a bit and start and stop it a few times and see if that cures it,then new batteries if it does...our oldest3185 loses reverse gear if battery terminals are loose but everything else works.sure it's 33....

Thanks that makes sense. Batteries are new but alternator light has come on and lights flicker so will test and change alternator.

 

[s~~t shoveller]

I have found on 3185 that the regulator goes on alternator.i think it's downto flashing the work lights like you might on the road,or turning them on real fast so i always turn them on steady now and seems to have stopped occuring but could be anything on your alternator!only trying to hand on my experiences...hope you get sorted.
