3038e electric help

I just want to thank everyone for an awesome experience on the site. Great ideas and info, I ordered a new gauge cluster and weather it was the interlock or the thermister idk but the tractor is starting running and flawless again. Thank you guys for all the help!!!!

Great news! Glad you got it solved. I had a strong inclination that the cluster was looking more and more suspect. Electrical no start issues can be a real nightmare, so ultimately you were lucky. You could have spent enormous amounts of time, money/parts tracking her down. TBN is great. So many good outcomes. Enjoy your 'new' tractor once again.

BTW, I don't recall if it is under warranty or not; but if you have the old cluster I'd be interested to know what failed? I haven't yet read the link posted after my last post, but I gather there is a thermistor issue with some clusters that render a no start result?

Yeas I have read that in these particular models the thermister will pop and you are unable to replace it. So you have to purchase the whole cluster. Also the interlock system that controls the safeties is in the cluster. I'm not 100% on anything all I know is the cluster was the problem.

My 2017 3038E was having similar intermittent electrical starting issues.
One day all good the next day just clicking with dead instrument cluster except the LCD looking like Morse code. It finally failed completely and a JD service tech who was a friend told me I needed a new cluster. The bad news: the LVA22015 cluster cost me $1,100 !! I only had 500 hours on it.
I installed it myself but you have to get it programed for your specific tractor by a JD tech with his computer program. I had that done in the field by a JD mobile tech. Waiting for the bill for that.
