Troubleshooting Control Module Error Codes The Control Module for the Fertilizer Spreader contains two motor drivers: MD1 controls the spinner and MD2 controls the gate actuator. The errors that reference MD1 are related to the spinner. The errors that reference MD2 are related to the gate actuator. 18 LP69910 (12/07/2020) 3 CU FT GATOR FERTILIZER SPREADER SPN Error Description Troubleshooting Guide 1103 Low Temperature Warning Internal temperature below -20C No action is necessary. The module will continue operating the spreader with an internal temperature between -20C and -30C but will stop operating the spreader if the internal temperature falls below -30C.
1104 High Voltage Fault System voltage above 19V The module will stop operating the spreader if the system voltage rises above 19V. This is a latching fault to protect the electronics. The module must be power cycled to recover from a high voltage fault. Note that the Display Module high voltage fault is not the same as the Control Module high voltage fault. 1105 High Voltage Warning System voltage above 18V No action is necessary. The module will continue operating the spreader with a system voltage between 18V and 19V but will stop operating the spreader if the system voltage rises above 19V.
Note that the Display Module high voltage warning is not the same as the Control Module high voltage warning. 1106 Low Voltage Fault System voltage below 6.5V The module will stop operating the spreader if the system voltage falls below 6.5V. This is a latching fault to protect the electronics. The module must be power cycled to recover from a low voltage fault. Note that the Display Module low voltage fault is not the same as the Control Module low voltage fault. 1107 Low Voltage Warning System voltage below 7V No action is necessary.
The module will continue operating the spreader with a system voltage between 7V and 6.5V but will stop operating the spreader if the system voltage falls below 6.5V. Note that the Display Module low voltage warning is not the same as the Control Module low voltage warning. 1108 Lost Communication Fault Lost CAN communication The module will stop operating the spreader if the CAN communication with the Motor Control Module is lost. Make sure all wiring harness connections are secure and all wiring is intact and undamaged. The modules must be power cycled to recover from a lost communication fault. 9999 Unknown Fault Unknown Fault Contact Superior Tech for support.
SPN Error Description Troubleshooting Guide 6100 MD1 Open Circuit Motor Driver 1 output is disconnected The motor driver checks if a load is connected between the positive and negative motor driver outputs before attempting to drive the motor. This is a latching fault to protect the electronics. Verify that the connections at the Control Module terminals are properly secured, the wiring harnesses are not damaged, and all wiring harness connectors are properly connected. Verify that the motor is not damaged. The module must be power cycled to recover from the open circuit fault.
6101 MD1 Over Current Motor Driver 1 current draw above 15A The motor driver will stop operating the spreader if the output current goes above 15A. This is a latching fault to protect the electronics. Verify that the motor is not damaged. A heavily loaded or jammed spinner can result in a very high current draw. Reduce the load on the spinner or clear the jam before power cycling the module to recover from the over current fault.
