Check engine light on my 3550 (tier 4 5035)

[trev04]

I got a bit over 40 hrs on my new 3550 and got a check engine light (like it's not bad enough we got these on cars, now we got them on tractors). Turns out (after much discussion between dealer and factory service guys) the machine keeps track of fuel rail over pressurization and when the count gets too high it puts the tractor in limp mode. The counter was reset and the error cleared and they could not get it to fail again. So, they'll check the count when it goes in for 50 hr service.

Other than that, it's been all good.....love the tractor.

This is the post that clued me in on my problem and looking at the post date this issue has been around awhile.Plenty long enough for Mahindra to have sent out service bulletins for ECU upgrades.

I looked earlier today for service bulletins for the 3540/3550. Mahindra calls them TIBs. None,0. Just like the temp gauge issue on the 1538. No TIB so dealerships can take care of it. Thats why the DSRs are overwhelmed!
