Description
When you’re working ground with AutoGuide or trying to maintain perfect rows with GPS guidance, your tractor needs to know exactly where the front axle is positioned. That’s where this front axle position sensor comes in – it tells your electronic systems the precise angle of the front wheels so steering corrections happen smoothly and accurately. Your modern Massey Ferguson uses electronic sensing to maintain consistent implement position and draft control.
What You’re Getting
- Precise angle feedback that keeps automatic steering systems working smoothly
- Electronic signal output that integrates with your tractor’s computer systems
- Durable construction designed to handle the vibration and moisture of field work
- Direct replacement that plugs right into your existing wiring harness
Built for Modern Farm Operations
This sensor is designed for the newer Massey Ferguson tractors from the 5400 series utility machines up through the big 8700 series row-crop tractors. These are the tractors running precision farming systems, auto-steer setups, and electronic implement control where knowing front axle position is critical for accuracy.
Made to Last
Handle with care during installation as these sensors are precision instruments. The sensor housing is sealed against moisture and dust, with connections that resist corrosion from hydraulic fluid and road salt. Quality electronics inside provide consistent signals even after thousands of hours of operation.
Installation Notes
When replacing, ensure connections are clean and properly sealed – moisture intrusion is a common failure cause. Calibration after installation is typically required for proper operation. If you’re seeing error codes related to steering or front axle position, this sensor replacement often solves the problem. Common symptoms include erratic hitch movement, inability to maintain set positions, or complete loss of electronic functions with hydraulics reverting to manual mode. Error codes often point directly to sensor issues.
