Check the cause

  1. Check for a 12V power supply fault at the A013 fuse board, fuse 4.

  2. Inspect the sensor's electrical connector (e.g., X159) and wiring harness for corrosion, backed-out pins, or wire chafing.

  3. Test the sensor signal using a multimeter or oscilloscope to verify it produces a consistent square-wave voltage pulse as the exciter wheel passes the sensor tip.

  4. Ensure the sensor tip is clean and that the air gap between the sensor and the exciter gear is correct and free of metallic debris.

Repair steps

  1. Power Down

    Turn off the tractor, remove the key, and disconnect the battery to prevent electrical shorts.

  2. Locate the Sensor

    Locate the B010 Engine Speed Hall Sensor 1 (typically mounted on the engine block near the flywheel/crankshaft or camshaft area, depending on the specific engine model).

  3. Remove the Faulty Sensor

    Disconnect the electrical connector (e.g., X159). Remove the retaining bolt and carefully pull the sensor out of its bore.

  4. Install the New Sensor

    Clean the mounting surface. Insert the new sensor, ensuring it sits flush, and tighten the retaining bolt. Reconnect the wiring harness.

  5. Calibrate the Sensor

    Run the specific calibration procedure for the B010 engine speed sensor using the tractor's onboard terminal or the FENDIAS diagnostic tool before returning the tractor to work.

  6. Clear Codes

    Clear the 4.1.85 stored fault code from the Transmission Control Module and test drive the tractor to ensure the load limit control operates smoothly.
