    450j Deere won’t calibrate

    Thanks for your help! I ended up doing a null adjustment on the left side pump. I then went back through the calibration procedure and it was able to move on its own. I then took it outside of my shop and calibrated it under its own power ( not on jacks ) and its never tracked this good before!!

    450j Deere won’t calibrate

    I recently ran into a problem where my left speed sensor wouldn’t read rpm’s. I swapped sensors and the problem followed the sensor. I’ve always noticed when you put the dozer in forward or reverse it would always track faster on the left side.I replaced the sensor with a new Deere part. After...

    160C LC case drain filter

    I just replaced the final drive and called Deere to see if my excavator has a filter on the case drain. I looked in the prints and haven't found one. Iv also looked online and haven't came up with anything. Does it have one and if so where will it be located? The Vin is FF160CX045347. Thanks!

    450j throttle issue

    Thanks for the reply everything seems to check out. This only happens randomly when I over turn the knob it makes me cycle key. Would that not point to the throttle knob?

    450j throttle issue

    Sorry for the delay I had knee surgery. Is that the rear most filter beside the seat? I made sure the filter had the needed seals when I replaced I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary. It doesn’t have any active codes. But under stored codes it reads as follows SDM 1713.31 SDM 3359.31 SDM...

    450j throttle issue

    I have a new to me 450j dozer. It has an intermittent issue. If you start the dozer it will idle and run full throttle perfectly. If you rev the machine to say 1200rpm it will surge roughly 300rpm. It’s not a huge deal and hasn’t caused any issues I just noticed it. I did just pull it in and...

    Eaton 10 speed hard to shift

    Ill have to get the numbers off of it. I think I have found the problem. It appears that the shifter is actually hitting the cab I started tearing it apart, but I haven't had a chance to look at it yet.

    Eaton 10 speed hard to shift

    I just recently purchased a 2006 378 peterbilt. It has a c-13 and a 10 speed Eaton transmission. Any of the lower gears meaning 1,3,5,6,8, and 10th are hard to get into gear. It feels as if they don’t go as deep into gear as the upper gears do. Has anyone experienced this? I haven’t tore into...
