Description:

This error code, XSC 000708.10, is triggered when a speed of over 400 rpm is registered at channel 1 of the steering wheel position sensor. Despite this, the value measured by the XMC control software is within the acceptable range. This discrepancy may indicate an issue with the steering wheel position sensor or the signal processing.

Reaction:

When this fault occurs, the control software will have limited or no functionality, particularly affecting the steering system’s responsiveness and accuracy.

Recommendations:

Inspect Steering Wheel Position Sensor:

• Check the steering wheel position sensor for any signs of damage or wear.
• Ensure the sensor is properly installed and connected.

Monitor Sensor Output:

• Use diagnostic tools to monitor the sensor output and verify if the reported speed exceeds the normal operating range.
• Compare the sensor readings with those from the XMC control software to identify discrepancies.

Update Control Software:

• Check for any available updates for the control software and install them to address potential bugs or signal processing issues.

Consult Technical Support:

• If the issue persists, contact John Deere technical support for further diagnostics and solutions.
• Provide detailed logs of the sensor readings and any steps already taken to address the fault.

Note:

Ensuring the accuracy and proper functioning of the steering wheel position sensor is crucial for the steering system’s performance. Regular inspections and updates can help maintain system reliability.
