Fault: The weight is not stable. The display varies while the tractor engine is off.
- Check that the machine meets the specified operating conditions (see the section on “Operating
conditions”).
- Check the connections between the sensors and the circuit board and the condition of the wiring.
- Run the self-tests on the unit: see 3.2.3.1.
- Check that the power supply voltage is stable. If not, check that the power supply is correctly
connected to the tractor battery. If the connection is OK, check the tractor’s electrical installation.
- If the power supply voltage is stable, check the voltage stability of each sensor and change the
sensor concerned.
- If these checks fail to reveal any reason for the fault, replace the weighing unit (see the section on
“Fitting and removing the sensors and the unit”).
Fault: Horizontal stripes appear on the screen
Cause: The weighing unit has suffered an impact
- Replace the weighing unit.
Fault: The screen is not legible
Cause: Insufficient lighting - the screen is partially or totally blank.
- Use a voltmeter to check that the indicator supply voltage is 12 V.
- For machines equipped with an internal battery, recharge the battery (see the section “Option:
internal battery life”).
- If the voltage is correct, adjust the weighing unit contrast using the potentiometer located on the
circuit board (for units made before April 1998 - see the section on circuit board connections), or for
units made later than April 1998, adjust using the contrast button on the front of the unit.
- If it is not possible to adjust the unit satisfactorily, replace the weighing unit (see the section “Fitting
and removing the sensors and the unit”).
Fault: After moving, the indicator no longer displays the same value
- Check that the machine meets the specified operating conditions (see the section on “Operating
conditions”).
- Check the connections between the sensors and the circuit board and the condition of the wiring.
- Run the self-tests on the unit: see 3.2.3.1.
- Check that the power supply voltage is stable. If not, check that the power supply is correctly
connected to the tractor battery. If the connection is OK, check the tractor’s electrical installation.
- If the power supply voltage is stable, check the sensor excitation voltage and the voltage stability of
each sensor.
- If these checks fail to reveal any reason for the fault, use the self-test sensor voltage display to note
the value of each sensor, then move the machine and note the new values of each sensor. The
sum of the voltages before and after moving should be the same.
- If they are different, there is a mechanical problem. Check again that the machine meets the specified
operating conditions (see the section on “Operating conditions”).
