Description:

This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) UIC 524173.04 is generated when the control unit measures a voltage of less than 0.5 volts at the signal input from channel 1 of the potentiometer (B65, lead 6114). This indicates a problem at the signal lead or a problem with the potentiometer supply voltage.

Reaction:

When this error occurs, the control unit may limit the functionality of the clutch system to ensure safe operation and prevent potential damage.

Recommendations:

• Inspect Clutch Pedal Potentiometer:
  • Check the B65 clutch pedal potentiometer for proper operation and ensure it is functioning correctly.
• Verify Supply Voltage:
  • Ensure that the supply voltage to the potentiometer is within the specified range.
• Check Wiring and Connections:
  • Inspect all wiring and connectors related to channel 1 of the clutch pedal potentiometer for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
• Replace Faulty Components:
  • If the potentiometer or associated wiring is found to be faulty, replace or repair as necessary.
• Consult Technical Support:
  • If the issue persists, contact John Deere technical support for further diagnostics and potential solutions.

Note:

Low voltage readings could be due to intermittent faults in the wiring or connectors. Ensure a thorough inspection to avoid repeat occurrences.
