Issue description

This code indicates that the position of the shutoff cock for the front power lift cannot be detected, or there is a signal fault with the solenoid switch that locks/releases the external front power lift controls. Because of this fault, it is impossible to switch the operating mode from the hydraulic connection to the front power lift.

Check the cause

  1. Verify the physical position of the shutoff cock (AVF) for the front power lift to ensure it isn't mechanically jammed.

  2. Locate the S023 switch (Lock solenoid switch for the external front power lift control button).

  3. Using the 'Spool valves 1' wiring diagram (Sheet 26), test the wiring harness connecting the S023 switch to the hydraulic control module for breaks, shorts, or corrosion.

Repair steps

  1. Locate the Switch

    The S023 switch is located on the right entrance step of the tractor, right next to the AVF stopcock.

  2. Access the Component

    Remove the cover panel on the right entrance step to expose the switch and the stopcock assembly.

  3. Test/Replace

    Disconnect the electrical connector to the S023 switch. Test the switch for proper continuity when actuated. If the switch is internally shorted or fails to send a signal, unbolt and remove the faulty switch.

  4. Install New Part

    Install the replacement S023 switch, reconnect the wiring harness, and reinstall the cover panel.

  5. Verify Operation

    Start the tractor and attempt to switch the operating mode from the hydraulic connection to the front power lift to ensure the code has cleared and functionality is restored.

Parts you might need

(1)
  • Switch, lock front power lift (Lock solenoid switch, external front power lift control button)

    Component ID: S023. Always provide the tractor's chassis number when ordering, as the exact switch variation can differ slightly between generations.
