Aaargh - tractor won't move, err codes 5 & 12

Aaargh - tractor won\'t move, err codes 5 & 12

Just got done using the tractor for the day, hosed it off, then parked in the sun to dry off. It started fine, drove for about 30 seconds, then stopped, even though the foot was on the forward pedal. Let off, stepped on it, moved for 5 feet, then the caution light came on, and cycled err 5, then err 12. Manual is pretty much worthless on these error message, basically says to contact the dealer.

I checked all the connectors on the sensor that could have had gotten wet and dried them with compressed air, however, the error codes are still there and tractor won't move. I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes hoping to clear the error codes, but no such luck.

- Does anyone know how to clear codes??

I will call the dealer in the morning, but was wondering if anyone else has had these problems. My fear is that the dealer will be too busy for 2 weeks to look at my tractor and I am in the middle of a construction project and need my green and yellow wheels.

Tractor 3320 with ~80 hours.

Thanks for any ideas.

Derek

I am not sure if you found what the error codes mean yet, but here's a list .

Yup,

saw the list, like I said, it is pretty much worthless. Sensor voltage out of range, contact your dealer. If they would at least mention which sensor it would be a start.

Thanks though.

actually, it might be telling us something.
First it shows the brake v.s. cruise control interlock (err05)
then it says sensor voltage out of range (err12)

From that, I would guess that the harness to either the cruise switch or the interlock switch on the brake is unplugged, loose or broken. It might be a faulty ground at one of those also.
Which brake is a question, the running brakes or the parking brake? Check around both.

That's my guess.

Just a quick update.

Dealer sent a tech out yesterday, however, he forgot to bring a key and I was at work. He jiggled a bunch of wires, then left. When I got home, I started the tractor and moved it around for about 10 minutes, all of the sudden my error 12 came back. I turned it off, waited about 1 minute, restarted it, and the error is now gone. The technician will be out this morning to try to find the cause of the error, but he told me that an orange sensor supply wire that loops to the throttle sensor, the 2 go pedals, the 4wd switch and the cruise control sensor is most likely the cause.

I will post an update once I know more.
