Issue description

PTR: The control unit detected an attempt to perform a directional shuttle shift while the tractor's wheel speed was too high. PTP: The control unit detected that the C or D clutches are slipping beyond the established service limit.

Check the cause

  1. For PTR (Shuttle Shift): Confirm with the operator if they are attempting to shuttle shift without bringing the tractor to a safe, low speed or complete stop.

  2. For PTR (Shuttle Shift): If the operator was completely stopped when the code triggered, use a diagnostic tool to monitor the live wheel speed sensor data for false high-speed readings.

  3. For PTR (Shuttle Shift): Check the wiring harness leading to the transmission and wheel speed sensors for shorts, chafing, or corrosion.

  4. For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Ensure the operator is not resting their foot on the clutch pedal (riding the clutch) during operation, causing partial engagement.

  5. For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Verify that the transmission fluid is at the correct level and in good condition.

  6. For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Ensure hydraulic pressure to the C and D clutches is within the specified OEM range to allow proper engagement.

Repair steps

  1. Clear the Code

    For PTR (Shuttle Shift): Stop the vehicle, return the gear selector to Neutral or Park, and cycle the key switch to clear the code and attempt system recovery.

  2. Operator Correction

    For PTR (Shuttle Shift): Instruct the operator to slow down to acceptable parameters before utilizing the forward/reverse shuttle lever.

  3. Sensor Replacement

    For PTR (Shuttle Shift): If diagnostic checks proved the wheel speed sensor is outputting erratic/false high-speed readings while stationary, replace the speed sensor and clear the codes.

  4. Clear the Code

    For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Stop the vehicle, shift to Neutral/Park, and cycle the key.

  5. Split Transmission

    For PTP (Clutch Slipping): If the code returns immediately and fluid levels/pressures are fine, the transmission must be split to access the clutch packs.

  6. Inspect Clutches

    For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Inspect the C Clutch (CC) and D Clutch (DC) friction plates and steel separators for burning, scoring, or excessive wear.

  7. Replace Clutch Discs

    For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Replace the worn clutch discs.

  8. Refill and Calibrate

    For PTP (Clutch Slipping): Refill the system with approved transmission fluid and perform a transmission clutch calibration using John Deere Service ADVISOR.
