My dealer provided me with all of the manuals. Not sure if web site or what. I know I have them all on my computer.

These help? HST is on the right.

Installed the LS 3rd function valve kit today. Came with the solenoid valve, joystick, and wiring harness.


I didn't buy the lines and hardware kit as it cost too much for what is in the kit. I'll make my own out of hose and I purchased a couple bulkhead connectors for the loader mount. I also have some of the hardware in my shop already.

Thankfully my XR4155 came from the factory with three remotes , that was one of the big reasons why I bought it.

Mine did too. All three rear remotes get used with some implements.

Third function is different than the three rear remotes though. Primary use will be for a future grapple.

my xr4150 open station, only came with two remotes. I wish I had at least one more.

I’m not sure how that actually works have seen MT3 57 and XR4155 come with either 2 or 3 remotes so I’m guessing it depends on what the dealer happens to order.

This is just another data point for regen operation.

After letting my MT240 warm up a couple minutes last night the regen light came on and the temp had barely moved off C which was unusual. It did reach normal temp in a few more minutes and that's when it did the RPM variation which meant it needed to run higher RPM than the 1600 I had it at to regen, so I nudged the throttle up to 1800 and then the High temp warning light came on, this was at 176.7 hrs. I continued the work and at 176.9 hrs the lights went off in usual sequence first the high temp then a minute or so later the regen light. That was a regen in only 12 minutes, the quickest yet, usually they take closer to 20 minutes.

Well here's my regen history the best I have record of it, I'm sure I missed a few early on before I recognized there was a real problem. I have been having issues almost since I picked it up. They replaced a sensor, and they now have a ECU on order (backorder.) I even had a few regens and then within 5 minutes it goes into limp mode which a restart clears. There were also a couple regens ran at the dealership during troubleshooting and maintenance which I don't have listed below.

Regens time on hour meter, all regens complete successfully ~12 minutes:

4 (ran by dealer due to error code, day after I brought it home)
101
106
112
(Dealership replaced DPF Sensor)
118
119
148
165
175
187
191
197
213
224
234
250
(Dealership replaced ECU @ 252 hrs)

At one point, LS time told my dealer who told me they did NOT think the regen frequency was abnormal!
They have also blamed the fuel quality, which I get only from 2 sources with high turnover. I told them to sample it and prove the fuel is bad. After that, they ordered parts lol
