Check the cause

  1. Use the tractor's A008 terminal (Variotronic Ti) to access the Diagnostics Menu and check the target value for the transmission ratio from the A034 joystick to see if the system is registering physical inputs.

  2. Connect the FENDIAS service diagnostics program to check the A034 driving switch for initialization errors in reading the EEPROM.

  3. Verify the physical wiring and voltage supply for the CAN bus, specifically checking the power supply for the joystick CAN bus located on printed circuit board A013.

Repair steps

  1. Connect diagnostic tool

    Connect the tractor to the FENDIAS diagnostic tool.

  2. Navigate to programming module

    Navigate to the programming module for the A034 component.

  3. Run EOL programming

    Run new EOL (End-Of-Line) programming for the A034 joystick to rewrite the routing and filter data.

  4. Cycle ignition

    Cycle the ignition OFF and then ON.

  5. Replace joystick

    If the error re-occurs after a successful EOL reprogramming, the internal memory/EEPROM of the joystick has likely failed, and the A034 joystick assembly must be physically replaced.
