Instrument Panel - Elect. Cont. Earlier Engines IMPORTANT: Any time an electric gauge or meter does not register correctly, replace with a new one. Do not attempt to repair it. All gauges are plug-in type. Following is a brief description of the electronic controls found on John Deere-provided instrument panels. Refer to manufacturer’s literature for information on controls not provided by Deere. Engine Oil Pressure Gauge The engine oil pressure gauge (A) indicates engine oil pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) or kPa. An optional audible alarm (G) warns the operator if engine oil pressure falls below a safe operating pressure.
Amber “Warning” Indicator The amber “WARNING” indicator (B) signals an abnormal condition such as low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, water in fuel, low battery voltage, etc. Observe displayed code in window of diagnostic gauge/hour meter (D) for diagnostic trouble code (DTC). (Use the service code menu. See USING DIAGNOSTIC GAUGE TO ACCESS ENGINE INFORMATION later in this section.) Red “Stop Engine” Indicator The Red “STOP ENGINE” indicator (C) signals operator to stop engine immediately or as soon as safely possible. A condition exists that could cause damage to engine.
RG11169 –UN–01NOV00 Diagnostic Gauge/Hour Meter The diagnostic gauge/hour meter (D) displays diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as they are accessed. Other information on the engine can be accessed using the touch switches (E and F). The hour meter shows the operating hours of the engine. If engine trouble occurs, the gauge will alternately flash from displayed parameter to the message “SvrcCode”. Then the touch switches (E and F) can be used to access the trouble code (see following). Instrument Panel Continued on next page OURGP11,000027A –19–25NOV03–2/7 16-2 021604 PN=48
