My day job has me spending a LOT of time around the latest green planters and seeding equipment. Stuff you guys won't see for 4-5 years in some cases. The electronics and components are pretty darn good but boy does mother Deere do a bad job protecting the wiring against vibration. I tell every single electrical engineer, harness designer, and manufacturing engineer that will give me the time of day how to fix 90% of all electrical and 99% of the intermittent faults how to fix it. the fixes are simple, on every pigtail connected to a solenoid body make the pigtail on the harness just a little longer and use a zip tie to tie the harness to the solenoid body. Keep that wire from vibrating in the connector. The wires break just inside the rubber seal on a Deutsch connector right above the crimp on the pin and creates what starts out as an intermittent fault that is nearly impossible to diagnose because you have to catch it when it's not working (moving). For the price of a 6-pack of cheap beer they could save a fortune in warranty. Wish I could find someone high up enough in the organization willing to listen to a dumb engineer from a hydraulic hose supplier.
