Solution
Replace battery.
Replace engine voltage rectifier/regulator.
Manually move the actuator rod using the
Manual Height Adjustment feature.
Ensure there is no binding anywhere on the
unit when the actuator is moving.
Charge battery.
Check the engine charging coil and voltage
rectifier/regulator. Replace or repair if
needed.
Check all connections. Repair or replace if
needed.
See flow chart, page 33.
Check all wires for shorts. If all wires are
okay, the DCS Control board may be dam-
aged and need to be replaced.
Check to see if Home Button is stuck. If not
stuck, replace the Home Button switch.
Check to see if Zero Button is stuck. If not
stuck, replace the Zero Button switch.
Check to see if Cut Depth Button is stuck. If
not stuck, replace the Cut Depth Button
switch.
Clear the error code.
If the error code reappears 30 seconds
after turning the Power Switch back ON,
the problem is the Up Button on the DCS
Control. Check to see if the Up Button is
stuck. If not stuck, replace the Up Button
Switch.
Clear the error code.
If the error code reappears 30 seconds
after turning the Power Switch back ON,
the problem is the Down Button on the
DCS Control. Check to see if the Down
Button is stuck. If not stuck, replace the
Down Button Switch.
