 NW Iowa | I have found a couple bad compressors and a couple bad condensers and bad evaporators and a bad high temp sensor. Do you have auto air or regular? For your A/c to work properly the system has to function correctly. Liquid to your expansion valve, changing to gas in the evaporator and back to liquid in your condenser. If you don't have gauges hooked up you don't know crap. Watch your hoses for cold or hot spots. Since you have the cab top off, turn on your system and watch it. The compressor should run as much on as off. It has to cycle. If you can't convert it from liquid to gas and back again you will not cool. Did you make sure your turbo air cooler and radiator are clean. Not with air, but a 800- 1000 psi power washer? I get tired of people bashing these that don't know what they are doing. If you haven't been trained or have experience with A/C systems, how do you think you can fix it. Give some real info, so we can help you, and quit bitching. I've been running them for yrs with no problems. But then I'm not a weekend warrior mechanic....
None of the tractor brands are perfect and everything breaks. Case IH has engine o ring problems, JD IVT issues, and so on. These tractors are not as simple as the ones from the 70, 80, and 90's. Used to be if you got it started you didn't even need the alt except at night with lights. Lots of electronics and lots of sensors. Ton's of things that rattle loose. Lots of parts outsourced out of country. Seems everything is throw away. Reman means rework... Some people are harder on things than others. If you buy any of these newer tractors and don't know the history, you could be in for a big surprise. You simply can't beat on or cowboy up them and expect not to have problems. These tractors take real mechanic and diagnostic skills.
It's to the point some people are just going to have to lease them because they are not qualified to work on them.
