JOHN DEERE FAULT CODES LIST

Unveiling the John Deere Fault Codes: Your Guide to Navigating Technical Dialogues of Your Equipment

The engineering marvels from John Deere are renowned for their robustness and intricacy. Yet, like any sophisticated machinery, they have a way of communicating issues through fault codes. The John Deere Fault Codes List serves as a diagnostic lexicon, aiding in navigating the technical dialogues of your equipment. This piece aims to delve deeper into this aspect, ensuring you’re well-versed with the codes that keep your machinery ticking.

The ABCs of John Deere Fault Codes

Decoding a Fault Code

A fault code in John Deere machinery is a blend of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and a Fault Mode Identifier (FMI). The DTC is a trio of digits where the inaugural digit pinpoints the broad problem area, the subsequent digit hones in on the subsystem, while the last digit zeroes in on the precise component.

Illustrative Examples of John Deere Fault Codes

  • Code 1347.4 (Engine System): Here, ’13’ is indicative of the engine system, ’47’ is signaling the fuel pump, and ‘4’ is emblematic of low voltage or a short circuit.
  • Code 1569.31 (Vehicle System): In this code, ’15’ highlights the vehicle system, ’69’ denotes the Vehicle Information Control Unit, and ’31’ signifies a condition not met.
  • Code 523693.31 (Control System): ’52’ demarcates the control system, ‘369’ is referring to the engine control unit, and ’31’ denotes condition not met.
  • Code 1569.28 (Vehicle System): ’15’ denotes the vehicle system, ’69’ refers to the Vehicle Information Control Unit, and ’28’ denotes delay.
  • Code 524031.19 (Electrical System): ’52’ denotes the electrical system, ‘403’ refers to the engine control unit, and ’19’ denotes incorrect range.
  • Code 1347.7 (Engine System): ’13’ denotes the engine system, ’47’ refers to the fuel pump, and ‘7’ denotes mechanical fault.
  • Code 3216.9 (Cooling System): ’32’ denotes the cooling system, ’16’ refers to the thermostat, and ‘9’ denotes incorrect range.
