Had a look under spreader but can see any plugs to take apart to check without taking boxes etc to bits , doesn't seem to be counting the area properly assume it's to do with this error too ?

Anyone had this before and found the problem?

Check all your connections and dry, even use a hot air blower or hair drier to make sure. Also leave connected and run tractor for 30mins often settles down.

Took the linkages off the shutters and the round bar that connects the shutters to the actuator was a bit stiff, could move it by hand but only just , sprayed wd40 into the black plastic bushes round it and took off the bushes I could get to and cleaned them up, moving freer now but won't know if it's sorted it as we're finished with it for this year.

If I get time I might take the bar off completely to clean it up but that means taking off the actuator and the brackets that Hold it on too.

Should the middle icon on the lowest bar of the screen be lit up when spreading? Can't get it to spread the right amount and I think it's not adjusting it's self to the right amount.
