John Deere 516707 – Rear Chassis Module (SCC): High Voltage On Rear SCV Valves 6

Issue description

The controller is detecting a voltage on the circuit for the #6 rear Selective Control Valve (SCV) that exceeds the expected normal operating range. This typically points to an open ground circuit, high resistance in the ground path, a short to a power source, or an internal failure of the valve's stepper motor.

Applies to these machines

  • 6110R
  • 6120R
  • 6130R
  • 6145R
  • 6155R
  • 6175R
  • 6195R
  • 6215R

Check the cause

  1. Inspect the wiring harness and electrical connector at the #6 Rear SCV valve for physical damage, corrosion, or loose pins.

  2. Use a multimeter to test the continuity of the ground circuit from the SCV connector back to the chassis ground. Repair any high resistance or open circuits.

  3. Check the signal wire between the Rear Chassis Module (SCC) and the SCV valve for a short to a 12V power source.

  4. If the wiring harness and grounds test good, the fault is likely internal to the SCV's electrical stepper motor.

Repair steps

  1. Safety First

    Lower all implements to the ground, turn off the engine, and cycle the hydraulic levers/controls to relieve all hydraulic pressure in the system before servicing. Escaping high-pressure fluid can cause serious injury.

  2. Disconnect

    Unplug the electrical connector from the #6 rear SCV valve.

  3. Wiring Repair (If Applicable)

    If your diagnostics revealed an open ground or damaged wire, splice and repair the wiring harness using John Deere approved weather-sealed connectors.

  4. Valve Replacement (If Applicable)

    If the wiring is intact, the SCV stepper motor/valve assembly has failed. Unbolt the faulty SCV valve from the rear hydraulic stack.

  5. Install New Valve

    Install the replacement SCV valve using new O-rings and backup rings to prevent hydraulic leaks. Torque the mounting bolts to OEM specifications.

  6. Calibration

    Reconnect the electrical harness. Turn the key on, clear the stored 516707.00 fault code, and use the tractor's command center display (or John Deere Service ADVISOR) to perform a Rear SCV Calibration.
