 Volvo Display problems

I am not sure if I asked for help on this here a year or more back but regardless: had computer display on mini excavator that gave me real head aches. If it did not display the controls would not work and often it would not display correctly when first cranked if cold. Asked heavy equipment people and no one had real idea other than new computer display which had just been replaced by Volvo before I bought the machine (my guess for same reason).

So this summer had to replace the battery. Guess what that problem was solved. The best guess I and my tractor person had was voltage was lower in the old battery than the computer needed to operate properly and it was not the engine getting warm but the battery getting charged enough for voltage to hold at level needed. It was not due to disconnecting the battery as it has battery disconnect on it and that was always used when leaving the machine.

My old northern friend, It might be but so far about 50 starts since then and still working properly.

Jeff, thought about you this week, kept thinking you might show up. A couple of years back you invited yourself for Thanksgiving and yet to show.

Ken, tractor dealer who I bought the battery from told me when told him what happened he had seen that before but no idea on what kind of boards. It makes sense in a way the issues with the control panel not working was voltage related for it did vary with how long the machine had been setting and thus the strength of the battery and when it did not come up properly it almost always did by the time it was allowed to warm a few minutes if run at fast idle which of course would have raised the voltage by then a little at least.

Jeff, it might be happen so but since the problem has gone away with the new battery I am glad to give it the credit. As to your taste in food...be careful any link sausage you eat, you never know what the casing is!
