522390.11

John Deere 522390.11 – TIQ, XSC, XSA, PTF, TSA, HCC, ACU, or TID: Tractor-Implement Automation™ (TIA) Fault

Issue description

This error is generated when the tractor's 'come-home' (limp) mode is activated or when a full stop is commanded by the steering system, causing the control software to immediately deactivate all functions of the Tractor-Implement Automation™, AutoTrac™, and Auto Headland systems. It can also be triggered by a software compatibility issue on 6R tractors using third-party steering systems.

Check the cause

  1. Check for primary fault codes in the transmission, steering, or CAN Bus systems, as this is often a secondary reaction code to limp mode

  2. Inspect implement CAN Bus connections between the tractor and implement for security, corrosion, or damage

  3. Verify CLC software version if using an Ag Leader steering system on a 6R tractor, as a 2021 update is known to cause handshake failures

Repair steps

  1. Perform a Soft Reset

    Turn the tractor off, wait 30 seconds for the modules to power down, and turn the key back on.

  2. Attempt Vehicle Recovery

    If the tractor is in limp mode, return the transmission shift lever to the 'Park' position, and restart the engine to attempt a system recovery.

  3. Address Root Cause Codes

    If the code returns immediately, diagnose and repair the other active fault codes present in the TIQ, XSC, or engine modules. Fixing the primary fault that caused the limp mode will automatically restore the Auto Headland and TIA functions.

  4. Repair CAN Bus Wiring

    If no other codes are present but communication with the implement is failing, clean the implement CAN Bus connectors with contact cleaner. Repair any chafed wiring or loose pins in the harness connecting the tractor to the implement.

  5. Software Update/Rollback

    Ensure the implement control software and tractor control software are up to date. If the issue is caused by the Ag Leader/JD 6R compatibility bug, contact your dealer for the specific software patch or workaround.

Parts you might need

(3)
  • Implement CAN Bus Wiring Harness / Connectors

    Generic OEM replacement depending on the damaged section

  • CAN Bus Terminator Resistor

    Generic OEM

  • CommandQuad™ Transmission Shift Control Unit (TIQ)

    OEM Part Number varies heavily by exact tractor model, year, and serial number; requires dealer programming via Service ADVISOR if replaced
