Problem: Boom indicators on the Run screen of the display turn green, but the booms do not
open.
Solution:
1. Check wiring connections for all of the boom valves.
2. Verify that the cabling is providing 12 volts to the boom valve on the signal pin.
Note: You can also check for 12 volts on pins 1-10 on the boom connection of the liquid module.
Problem: Boom valves pause up to 5 seconds before turning on by manual control.
Solution:
1. Verify that the display and Liquid Control Module are both updated to the latest available
firmware.

Note: This issue should only occur on John Deere sprayers. Make sure the black wires in the switch cable
are connected.

2. Verify the boom offsets are appropriate for the sprayer.
Note: Boom offsets are measured from the center of the vehicle to the center of the boom section.
3. Adjust the turn on look-ahead and turn off look-ahead to fine-tune Automatic Swath Control
performance.

Problem: Erratic behavior from the flow meter and boom valves.
Solution: Verify that the display firmware and module firmware are both current.
