When DeereTrax Installation Record is complete Fax it to the number on the record. To synchronize the communications controller: 3. Both LED lights (1 and 2) will come ON for 1—5 seconds, indicating power is present at the communications controller. 1. Move the machine outdoors with no electrical wires or metal structures directly overhead. 2. Key switch ON. Engine OFF.
P R O O F Installation Instructions Problem Diagnosis Symptom Problem LED Lights Do Not Come ON When Key Is Turned ON Blown fuses Connection to alternator incorrect Power harness failure Solution Check fuses in power harness Check harness connections to terminals on alternator. B+ unswitched power (Red Wire) must be connected to positive (+) power source. GND (Black wire) must be connected to clean frame ground. D+ switched power (Brown Wire) must be connected to positive (+) power source.
P R O O F Installation Instructions Symptom Problem LED harness failure Cellular Connection LED Does Not Come ON Voltage may fluctuate for five seconds, but should remain constant after that. If voltage is present on yellow wires, but LED lights aren’t ON, harness has failed. replace harness. If voltages in previous checks are correct, communications controller has failed. Cellular antenna cable connection Check cellular cable connection at antenna and communications controller.
P R O O F Installation Instructions Symptom GPS/ENG RUN LED Light Does Not Come ON (Engine Running) Problem GPS antenna cable connection Check GPS antenna cable connections at antenna and communications controller. Communications controller failure Replace antenna and cable. If LEDs do not come ON and voltage checks are OK, replace communications controller.
