1. 1

   Visual Inspection: Locate the Wheel Angle Sensor, which is typically mounted on the right side behind the front axle. Inspect the sensor, its mounting bracket, and the tie-rod linkage for physical damage or loose hardware.

2. 2

   Wiring and Connector Check: Inspect the sensor's wiring harness for chafing, and check the connector for loose pins, dirt, or corrosion.

3. 3

   Voltage Testing: Check the sensor's reference voltage, ground, and signal return wire continuity back to the Dash controller.

4. 4

   EDT Tool Verification: Use the AGCO Electronic Diagnostic Tool (EDT) to monitor the live wheel angle sensor test data and verify if the PVED valve is turning on.

1. 1

   Preparation

   Park the tractor on a level surface, center the steering, turn off the engine, and disconnect the battery.

2. 2

   Removal

   Disconnect the electrical harness from the Front Axle Steering Sensor. Remove the mounting screws/nuts securing the sensor and its ball-joint linkage to the front axle bracket.

3. 3

   Installation

   Mount the new Wheel Angle Sensor to the bracket and attach the linkage. Reconnect the electrical harness.

4. 4

   Calibration

   Use the dealer EDT tool to perform a Wheel Angle Sensor calibration. The vehicle profile measurements must be loaded, and the steering valve spool calibration should be completed to set the maximum wheel angle and minimize deadband movement.
