B: Frequently Asked Questions

1.

When I tried to install the steering wheel switch I could not find an 
exposed portion of the steering shaft. Where should I install the 
magnets and the switch?

The steering wheel switch kit was designed to be universal and 
able to be installed on a wide variety of machine platforms. On 
some machines the steering shaft is covered by a sleeve and it is 
necessary to drill a hole in this sleeve that is large enough to install 
the magnets then attach the sensor so it can read the magnets 
through the hole. Any rotating assembly connected to the steering 
wheel can be used to install the sensor magnets as long as the 
sensor is able to read the magnets as the steering wheel is turned. 
See page 14 and the Universal Steering Wheel Switch Kit manual 
(part umber 876-0082) for more information.

2.

Does it make a difference which eDriveTC steering hose is 
connected to the A

 

and B ports of the eDriveTC hydraulic block?

No, the steering outputs of the eDriveTC hydraulic block can be 
reversed and easily corrected. When performing the steering adjust 
function, the vehicle steering should turn left with the down arrow 
and right with the up arrow. If the steering direction is reversed 
simply switch the two connectors on the eDriveTC valve interface 
cable and confirm proper directional orientation.

3.

Why does my vehicle turn hard left/right when I engage eDriveTC?

This may occur for a number of reasons. Make sure the steering 
speed of the eDriveTC hydraulics is set to a reasonable cycle time 
before attempting a driving test; see the vehicle specific install 
instructions. Make sure the eDriveTC console is fastened securely 
to the vehicle in the proper orientation. The vehicle must be 
reasonably aligned with the desired GPS guideline before engaging 
in order to minimize line overshoot.

4.

What causes eDriveTC to constantly engage and disengage during 
a pass?

There are three things that cause eDriveTC to auto-disengage (see 
page 27 of the user guide) and two things that cause the eDrive to
