Check the cause
Test battery voltage at the positive and negative terminals of the G001 battery (should be approx. 12 VDC off, 8 VDC cranking, 13.8 VDC running)
Check the power supply to the EDC control module to ensure there is no system failure or voltage drop
Inspect the 'Power supply +Ub' circuit and battery wiring for a short circuit to the battery or earth, or a break in the wiring
Repair steps
Inspect and Clean
Inspect the G001 battery terminals and ground connections (e.g., the earth pin at the right entrance step where the battery case is located) for corrosion or loose connections. Clean and tighten as necessary.
Test the Battery
Perform a load test on Battery 1. If the battery fails the load test or cannot maintain the required 12 VDC base voltage, it must be replaced.
Verify Wiring
If the battery is healthy, trace the wiring harness from the battery to the EDC control module (A051) using the tractor's electrical schematic. Repair any broken wires or short circuits.
Clear the Fault
Once the physical repair is complete, connect the Deutz SERDIA service diagnostics program to the tractor.
Delete Error
Use SERDIA to clear the fault code (associated internal failure codes FC:0016, 0017) from the EDC memory.
