Case IH 1967-11 - UCM – UCM: Unexpected reset of rear pilot head #5

Issue description

An electronic or mechanical fault where the control head for the #5 rear remote hydraulic valve is either resetting unexpectedly or detecting that the hydraulic spool valve is physically out of the neutral position when the machine is powered on.

Applies to these machines

  • MAGNUM AFS Connect
  • Puma (models 200, 215, 230)

Check the cause

  1. Cycle the power: Turn the tractor off, ensure the #5 remote lever/paddle in the cab is physically centered in the neutral detent, and turn the key back on

  2. Check supply voltage to the #5 pilot head to rule out voltage spikes or drops causing unexpected resets

  3. Inspect the wiring harness and connectors leading to the #5 rear remote valve for corrosion, moisture, or pin damage

  4. Verify that the mechanical spool inside the hydraulic valve block is not sticking due to debris or cold/thick hydraulic fluid

Repair steps

  1. Remove actuator

    Remove the electronic pilot head actuator from the #5 rear remote valve block.

  2. Verify spool movement

    Verify the mechanical spool moves freely.

  3. Replace pilot head

    Replace the pilot head if the internal position sensor has failed.

Parts you might need

(1)
  • Rear Remote Valve Pilot Head #5 (or Electronic Remote Valve Actuator)

    When ordering, you must specify that it is for the #5 remote valve on a Magnum AFS Connect or Puma series, as pilot heads are often color-coded or specifically addressed on the CAN bus network to correspond to their specific remote number.
