Case IH 1967-13 - UCM – UCM: Rear Pilot Head #5 Out of Calibration
Issue description
The Rear Pilot Head #5 (electronic actuator/controller for the #5 rear remote spool valve) is reporting an out-of-calibration condition regarding its internal spool valve position sensor, meaning the physical position of the spool valve does not match the expected calibrated parameters.
Applies to these machines
4 machines- MAGNUM AFS Connect
- Case IH Magnum AFS Connect series (180, 200, 220, 240, 250, 280, 310, 340, 380)
- Case IH Steiger AFS Connect series
- Case IH Puma series
Check the cause
Check the UCM for related pilot head #5 voltage codes (such as 1967-09 for low supply voltage or 1967-04 for high supply voltage) that might indicate a wiring issue
Inspect the wiring harness and connectors running from the UCM to the rear pilot head #5 for corrosion, moisture ingress, or backed-out pins
Ensure the mechanical spool valve is not physically jammed or binding due to debris or hydraulic contamination, which could prevent the sensor from reaching its calibrated positions
Repair steps
Connect Diagnostic Tool
Connect the Case IH Electronic Service Tool (EST) laptop to the machine's diagnostic connector (Connector 1 or 2, depending on the specific cab configuration).
Attempt Recalibration
Navigate to the UCM module in the EST software and select the calibration procedures for the rear remote valves. Run the automated calibration sequence for Rear Remote #5.
Clear and Retest
If the calibration completes successfully, clear the 1967-13 fault code and cycle the #5 remote valve using the cab controls to verify the repair.
Replace Pilot Head (If Calibration Fails)
If the EST fails to calibrate the valve (or if the code immediately returns), the internal position sensor inside the pilot head has failed. The sensor is typically integrated into the pilot head actuator and cannot be serviced separately.
Install New Pilot Head
Depressurize the hydraulic system, unbolt the faulty pilot head #5 from the rear remote valve stack, and install the replacement unit.
Final Calibration
Connect the EST again and perform the remote valve calibration procedure on the newly installed pilot head to sync it with the UCM.
