Mahindra emax 22 warning light, need help

[Big Chief]

Watch the video

If i sit in the seat and start tractor as normal no flashing lights.period

If i sit in the seat with brake on, key on (not running) and get out for something and get back in the seat (which closes the seat switch) the warning light flashes and then goes away once running.

No running or performance issues at all

Seems to me to be a warning that the safety start cycle was interupted.


No one seems to have ever had this problem.


Any thoughts

Bueller? Anyone?

I've had the mil light flash during start up. Never really worried much about it though. Always goes out after start up.

Ok thanks anyone else seeing this on their machines?

I have never seen this on mine but will give it a try today like you said above and let you know what happens.

Must be a Sasquatch alert to turn the Sasquatch lights on

Jokes aside. Looks like it's throwing some sort of code. Do you have any manuals of the tractor?

 

[Big Chief]

Big foots are all around this neck of the woods, lol

Manual shows nothing.

Tech at a Mahindra dealer over the phone never heard of the flashing light series I have.

I have fixed every piece of equipment I have ever owned and really don’t want to Take my computer with a loader and backhoe on it to the dealer.

No trailer, distance and down time...
Thanks for the replies
Anyone else?

Well I tried the same on my e-max and did not get the flashing light.

 

[Big Chief]

Ok thanks guys
I had to take it to my local dealer today. I will keep you updated on what happens

Update

I spoke to the dealer today after connected to the computer the code 34 showed as indicated by the flashing light. 126 times it was recorded.

It is a fail to start code of some sort. ECU was reflashed which upgraded the glow plug cycle time and temp settings.
Cleared all codes and it happened again

After a few hrs of tracing wires they found a harness that was worn through causing the problem.

I am glad they found it and confirmed the problem.:thumbsup: it is in the same area as the hose that was rubbing on the frame.
I will update you guys again once I pick it up.
