  • Check for Recent System Changes: Review any recent changes to the system, such as updates to other control units or new components that might be generating the unknown code.
  • Consult Technical Documentation: Refer to John Deere technical documentation or support resources for information on newly introduced diagnostic trouble codes that may not yet be recognized by the CommandCenter.

  • Monitor System Behavior: Keep an eye on the overall system performance and behavior. If any specific issues are noticed, document them and provide this information to technical support to assist in diagnosing the problem.
