Mpower 85 alarm

[Hayboy83]

I have an issue on my brothers mpower 85. My dad was using it to bale hay and an alarm went off but nothing on the control panel is lighting up. My brother and i are hay partners and he is in the Army and training in Fort Hood so I'm the man in charge of his stuff right now. The next day after baling hay, I ran the tractor and the alarm started going off about 15 minutes after starting. I am gonna take it in this week but I'm just wondering if any of y'all have seen this problem. Once again, tractor runs fine, nothing is lighting up on dash board, alarm is steady going off after 15 mins.

Thank you sir, I add trans fluid, it was a little low. I don't have my manual in front of me. Do u know if there is a couple of things I could look for? Save me a trip to the dealer. I'm gonna take it home and change all the filters

Scavenger pump sensor is bad... replace the sensor its like $6 if its out of warranty... its one wire plug that comes off then you screw it out the side of the transmission and put the new one it.... its right behind the battery on the top of the transmission sticking out sideways

 

[Navasot]

You will have to lay down under the cab and look up the side of the transmission to see it better

 

[Navasot]

Also be sure your filter is on well... we had one that was just loose enough to suck air through the filter.... my bet its 98%on the scavenger pump sensor

 

[Hayboy83]

Thank you, I'll try it

Ok, quick update. First of all, thank y'all for the feedback! Still can't get my hands on manual, my brother and dad are both looking around for it. I did get under the tractor and seen a sensor behind the battery. I disconnected it and tried to start the tractor without it but tractor wouldn't start. So I connected it and while I was under there, I found another sensor that was disconnected. That one was under the rear axle. Before I connected it, I started the tractor and moved it so I could get down a mower I just bought. Then I connected the sensor and started unhooking the mower. And just like before, 15 minutes after start up I heard the alarm from outside of the tractor. I got back into the tractor and the 4x4 light on the dash board was on. I'm really don't have a lot of time operating this tractor so I never thought to look at that lever. So the I pressed the clutch and disengaged the 4x4 and as soon as I let the clutch go the alarm went silent. I'm gonna use the tractor to check my baler and mower, so I'll let y'all know if it comes back.

Ok, the alarm came back after 15 min but went silent for 15 min. Then it came back on.

 

[Navasot]

Did you replace the scavenger pump sensor?

 

[Navasot]

Ask me how many of these I replaced

 

[Hayboy83]

Finally made it to the dealer and they didn't have the part. They told me to reset it by using the fuse box but it didn't work. They want me to take it in. It's under warranty but I would like to figure out what's wrong myself

 

[Hayboy83]

Located the sensor and it's in a really tight place. Don't know if I will be able to get to it.

 

[Navasot]

you need to lay under the tractor and look up then its easy to get to.... the part is $15 if that. the reset wont help. You want me to send you one?

 

[Hayboy83]

It is located between the top of this transmission and under the cab. Right behind the battery. Where are you located?

 

[Navasot]

Yes sir that's the one. Im in Normangee Tx

 

[Navasot]

also stores in Conroe, Buna, and Navasota

 

[Hayboy83]

I REALLY appreciate the offer. The dealership near me in Alvin is closed all the way till Wednesday. But it looks like the main parts warehouse in Houston is open Monday. I'll pick one up and update y'all Monday night. Gonna change the fuel filter too.

 

[Navasot]

Yes but you will have to order the part from a dealer and have them will call it

 

[Navasot]

And pay the dealer that did the will call instead of the warehouse
