Check the cause

  1. Verify drivability to see if the tractor can still be driven in an auxiliary/emergency mode

  2. Verify the power supply and CAN bus connections to the A002 ECU

  3. Check the fuses on the A013 printed circuit board (specifically fuses like F039, F040, F041, or F046 depending on chassis)

  4. Connect the FENDIAS diagnostic tool to read out the exact state of the A002 ECU and confirm that the checksum error is active and not a historical voltage-drop anomaly

Repair steps

  1. Connect diagnostic tool

    Connect the FENDIAS diagnostic tool to the tractor.

  2. Navigate to module

    Navigate to the A002 - ECU, enhanced control module.

  3. Perform programming

    Perform an EOL (End-Of-Line) programming procedure to rewrite the correct parameters for the active parking/hold function back into the ECU's memory.

  4. Clear faults

    Clear the fault codes and cycle the ignition.

  5. Test function

    Test the active parking/hold function to ensure the fault does not return.

  6. Replace ECU

    If the EOL programming fails, or if the fault code returns immediately after a power cycle, the internal EEPROM/Flash memory of the A002 ECU is physically defective. In this case, replace the A002 ECU.

  7. Program new ECU

    After installing the new module, perform a complete EOL programming and calibration of the new A002 ECU using FENDIAS.

Parts you might need

(1)
  • A002 - ECU, enhanced control (Comfort ECU)

    Order directly through an AGCO/Fendt dealer using the tractor's VIN. Shipped blank or with base software and will strictly require EOL programming and calibration upon installation.
