    Low coolant temp?

    I was wondering that too. I'm sure someone else will chime in on what it does exactly but I'm going to say the older ones didn't? I ran a 310SE for some time and those hoods were so annoying but don't remember ever seeing one but I could be wrong.

    Low coolant temp?

    Okay yeah I called John deere about that when I posted this to see if they had it. 300 bucks but hopefully it'll fix it. I'll post an update might be a few weeks leaving for vacation next week. Thank you

    Low coolant temp?

    I figured it was something with that bypass. I been meaning to post an update as I planned on using the machine a few weeks ago but ended up not needing it. Used it today coolant hit 157 was almost 90 where I'm at. I have the gun I bought to shoot the actual temp will do it once it's back to my...

    Low coolant temp?

    Sorry got busy yesterday. Serial number is T0310JX167489 Coolant bypass is silver. I did look on it when I got it I didn't see any temp on it only a part number. Maybe if I call they can tell me what it is

    Low coolant temp?

    I got the gun coming today so tomorrow or Monday whenever I'm back I'll take some shots and see what's going on but i think it's the bypass valve. John deere claims a stuck open bypass valve can cause low temperatures but I'll take shots first before I do that it's over 300 bucks for a little valve

    Low coolant temp?

    I ordered one but it's still cold I felt all the hoses so the gun was probably a waste of my money. It's not possible that the engine engine running up to temp and the gauge is wrong. The gauge COULD be wrong but it's still not getting warm plus there's no heat

    Low coolant temp?

    Yup that would be it!

    Low coolant temp?

    I'll get the number today when I'm there but I know the engine in it is a 4045ht054 series. When I put the thermostat in there was definitely some resistance. Not super hard but it was a good tight fit with the seal not sure on part number I can check later on the bag is in the cab. It was an...

    Low coolant temp?

    It's vertical and looks more like the one on the right. How can I check if the cylinder head is airlock? Heater hoses appear to have good flow. I was reading if that thermal bypass valve is stuck open it can cause low Temps apparently

    Low coolant temp?

    It's hard to tell exactly but looks like it goes into the radiator and the other side I'm not sure the diagram isn't very clear. I can look more tomorrow and see. I'm wondering if that's stuck open but I'm not really sure but considering 2 thermostats didn't work and that's all that's left seems...

    Low coolant temp?

    Yeah the outer seal was on it and I was careful when putting it in and old one looked fine too. Looking at diagrams here and noticed there's a coolant bypass valve on top of the radiator. Any idea what that does exactly and can it cause my issue? Just a thought there's nothing else to the entire...

    Low coolant temp?

    I believe it's a piston style. I bought a brand new one from deere ready to drop in and didn't change a thing. I'm going to block half the grill tomorrow I have to use it for probably 4 or 5 hours and see how that works. Maybe there is supposed to be the inner seal like you say and it wasn't...

    Low coolant temp?

    Okay so fan is okay then. I'll order a temperature scanner but I'm at a loss for words here what else it can be then. I know diesels run cool when sitting but once they're up to temperature it really shouldn't come down at least when it's 70 out here

    Low coolant temp?

    I went there today and the fan was locking I couldn't spin it. I didn't see a clutch? Does anyone know if that's normal on this series
