Welcome to TBN

That is going to be a dealer only item...What is wrong with your machine?

tractor won't move flashing codes for sensor voltage out of range ,forward and revserse potentiometers out of range and throttle. checked the voltage to flywheel sensor and F,R. pots. 1.1v; should be 5.v

Do you have the FSM (factory service manual)? It is very rare for the computer to fail. Much more common for wiring problems, especially to the pedals.

Not THAT rare. I had to have the controller on my 4310 replaced about 6 months a go, same set of errors. Dealer covered 1/2 the cost, since I had less than 200 hours on the hour-meter but the tractor was over 2 years old.

Being an Electronic Geek here at a company that makes most of the commercial jets you see flying I am with KennyD that check wires and connectors first thing. Poor connections can really give your electronics headaches. Vibration and corrosion are a bad combination for logic controlled circuits.

I just washed my E-Hydro machine yesterday and it wouldn't move for a few minutes afterwards, figured some connections must have gotten wet.

I afraid to ask but what does one of those drive controllers cost?

I have had the pedal pots wet before and had to dry them. (snow)

I unplugged the Drive controller for hour and it worked after.... I'm not sure what happened but i didn't buy a new one. Its better to be lucky than good!
