We have gps on this one. The yield monitor isn't reading.
I guess I hadn't considered it being the sensor itself. How would a guy test it?
Not much you can do to test it. There is a light on the back of the sensor, it should be flashing green about 1x per second if it's communicating properly on the CAN bus and the software thinks it's functioning correctly. If it's NOT communicating, you should be getting an error code on the display anyway.
Next time you go out, start up the combine, then wait a couple of minutes. Find the fuse for the flow sensor and pull it, then put it back in. This will force the sensor to reboot and come back on the network after everything else is already up and running, and might help the network recognize the sensor. If it works, then you know you have to pull the fuse on every key cycle, or just put in a switch or a circuit breaker instead of a fuse. |
