Description:

This error code, XSC 000709.10, indicates that a speed of over 400 rpm is registered at channel 2 of the steering wheel position sensor. Despite this high speed, the value measured by the XMC control software is within the acceptable range, suggesting a potential issue with the sensor or signal processing.

Reaction:

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

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 securely 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 and install any available updates for the control software 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.
