Fendt 6.1.1B (Only 900) – ENHANCED CONTROL: Y026 - Rear PTO speed 750 solenoid valve — Actuation fault
Issue description
The control module has detected an actuation error with the Y026 solenoid valve, which is responsible for engaging the 750 rpm speed stage (Stage I) of the rear PTO. This is typically caused by an electrical issue (wrongly wired, open/short circuit) or a mechanical failure where the solenoid valve is seized in the 'OFF' position, preventing the rear PTO from engaging normally.

Check the cause
Perform an Emergency Mode Test by pressing and holding the Engage PTO key in the cab for more than 5 seconds to see if the PTO engages, which helps determine if the issue is electrical or mechanical
Inspect the wiring harness and electrical connector at the Y026 solenoid valve for incorrect wiring, communication faults, or power supply issues
Test the Y026 solenoid coil resistance to rule out an open or shorted coil
Remove the valve and perform a mechanical inspection to check if the internal spool is seized in the OFF position
Check the A013 fuse board and verify the 12V power supply to the enhanced control and PTO systems
Repair steps
Park and prepare machine
Park the tractor on a level surface, turn off the engine, and engage the parking brake.
Locate solenoid valve
Locate the Y026 solenoid valve (designated as the Rear PTO stage I selection solenoid valve) on the rear transmission/PTO housing.
Disconnect and clean
Disconnect the electrical connector from the Y026 valve and clean any debris from the surrounding area to prevent contamination of the hydraulic system.
Remove faulty valve
If diagnostic tests proved the valve is seized or electrically dead, unbolt and remove the faulty Y026 solenoid valve.
Install new valve
Lubricate the O-rings on the new solenoid valve with clean hydraulic oil and install it into the housing.
Reconnect harness
Reconnect the electrical harness.
Clear fault codes
Clear the fault codes from the ENHANCED CONTROL module using the tractor's terminal.
Test repair
Start the tractor and test the rear PTO engagement at the 750 rpm setting to verify the repair.
Parts you might need

Ensure you are replacing the Y026 valve (750 rpm / Stage I). Do not confuse it with the Y027 or Y028 valves, which control the 1000 rpm (Stage II/III) speeds.
