So I checked how my remote lever works with the 3 point. When the remote lever is in neutral or "float" the 3 point lifts and lowers normally. When the remote lever is in either work position (and deadheaded, since there is no cylinder connected) the 3-point is non responsive and you can...

I'm not sure if the loader worked or not. Im using the tractor right now(on break) and I'll check.

Did you accidentally activate an auxilliary valve circuit? My remote outlets have a detent position and if in detent with nothing hooked to the outlets, pressure is deadheaded (hissing sound) and the 3-point won't work.

I guess I’ll just have to wait it out! Thanks to all who provided advice and experiences.

I just tried to force a region. No luck. Parking brake lamp lit, in neutral, idling, almost cold engine. (I used it this morning, so it cooled down some.)

I have 583 hours on the tractor. I was wondering if I needed more bars before it would let me do a forced regen. Seems like it used to do a regen automatically when I had 4 bars but perhaps it takes more. Maybe when the 5th bar appears, it will do an auto regen after it gets to operating...

4 bars show. Been at 4 bars for a while now.

Biodegraded, Since you had success initiating a manual region on your 1700 tractor, do you think you can initiate a regen whenever you want, even if there isn’t maximum bars showing? Or do you think you need to have the “regen needed” light on? I still can’t force a regen. I tried this morning...

Sure. Never went to a dead short tho.

I've never seen that. More likely a short further down the line. Hope we get to the bottem of this

That's a possibility but I've never seen that.

A relay is simply a heavy duty switch, controlled by a smaller switch.

Replace the fuse temporarily with a 12 volt seal beam headlight. When the short or overload is active, the headlight will glow somewhere between dim and bright. Wiggle wires, unhook things, et. until the bulb flickers or gets very dim.
