1st, try a header calibration.
- Cycle your combine key, then with the switch in HT, press the head all the way down and hold for ~ 3 seconds.
- Note the reading in the cornerpost - does it drop to 2?
- Now press and hold the header raise button. Head should raise ~1 ft, pause, then continue all the way up. If it does, retry AHHC.
If not, do you have an S0 or S1 error code in the cornerpost?
- S0 means you have a feederhouse position sensor error, which can screw up AHHC.
- S1 means a header sensor fault - Sorry, but you likely need to grab a voltmeter.
At the 3 pin round plug - backprobe the wires with it still connected (please don't slice them open....use a paperclip or real backprobe to slip in past the rubber seal), motor running. Measure DC volts to a clean ground bolt.
- A - should be 7.0-7.5V
- C - should be 0.5-1.0V
- B - Sensor signal. Should be ~2V smashed on ground, ~6V off ground
If A or C above is not right, check your combine & feeder wiring for breaks or faults.
If A & C are correct, but B is not: adjust, test or replace sensor on header.
Another way to test the header side is to use Ohms Setting on DVM.
- Disconnect plug from combine
- Measure across A & C in the header plug - should be ~ 1 KOhm. (1000)
- Measure across B to C - should be a 100-900 Ohms and change when you raise/lower the header.
- If 1st is true but 2nd is not, replace the sensor.
