D3G Fuel Gauge
Fuel gauge on my D3G (BYR01978) always shows full. What should the voltage read at the gauge? Trying to determine if it's the gauge or sending unit. Is there a way to test either of those? -

Frustrating D3G
Nige I really appreciate your help. All of your information helped to diagnose what it wasn’t. I wonder if some of the codes were because of the engine not producing sufficient current....... I am a bit more educated than I was about what makes this machine operate. I was convinced it was... -

Latest update: Started engine this morning, brought up to full throttle and in just of few seconds it began to stumble. Too lazy to remove lines at the tank ;). So I took my air compressor, took lines leading to tank loose & blew air back into tank. cut one end off of frayed hose, reconnected... -

Frustrating D3G
Pump is a small, self priming electric job on top of the filter. I know the pump seems to run for maybe a minute or so when I start the machine. Is that length of time normal? Anyone know what the fuel pressure should be? -

Frustrating D3G
The engine acts like it is under a load. It does smoke when it slows to a stop. If anything the engine sounds like it has a stutter (I know-sounds like a female description) I replaced fuel & air filters. Any way to check turbo output? -

D3G Ground Power Stalls
Another tidbit, swapped the brake & decel position sensors trying to see if problem changed. If anything problem got worse. The brake did work during the stalling condition. I did notice the engine was loading down, smoke coming from exhaust. The brake functions properly during the stalling... -

D3G Ground Power Stalls
Changed steering control unit, waste of time and $$$$. Problem still exists. Cleared all codes, moved all directions, checked codes and nothing shows - code 222. Paid mobile Cat service for visit, everything he could see pointed to high & low voltage on steering sensors. I’m at a loss as to... -

D3G Ground Power Stalls

D3G Ground Power Stalls
I really hate to resurrect this post BUT, the same performance issue is back. Error code this time is 255 - Position Sensor (Forward/Neutral/Reverse) Beginning to think sensors under the joystick are causing this. Any way to determine? Don't see the sensors as a separate part, so I am assuming... -
