Bobcat Actuator Calibration using machine controls not dealer laptop

  • Bobcat actuators need to be calibrated by the machine controller after being replaced or removed for any reason. The actuators can be calibrated using the machine controls. This will allow you to calibrate the actuator yourself and not have to rely on the dealer to do the calibration for you. This process is specifically for the G-Series machines with ACS (advanced hand controls) operating system.

    Great videos, a lot of details, much appreciated.
    I've been working on 2001 863, following your videos I had tilt actuator locking up the system, actuator was full of oil, only 3 years old.
    I replaced the spool seals and actuator, everything works fine now but I cannot calibrate.

    I get a 32-21 tilt actuator fault and a 32-25 code at times it just don’t seem to end I think I do need the tilt actuator

    We replaced the tilt actuator and had the right joystick repaired (circuit board) in our T320 and it will only give a 40-07, y-axis not in neutral code whenever we try to calibrate. All of the controls are functioning, however.

    Just installed a new tilt actuator in my 2000 863 G series. It has the AHC not ACS. Will this calibration still work for my machine?

    Will a secondary throttle not calibrated code cause a no start condition?
    Recently took apart the injection pump because we are guessing it’s bad because WIF event, but the inside of the pump looks pristine. So before buying a new pump would like to know if the secondary throttle not being calibrated will cause a no start condition.

      No, a secondary throttle calibration will not cause a no start condition

    Hi from Czech republic. I have a T190 with manual controls only. I replaced the motor in the actuator and during the calibration test it reports W3239. I tried calibrating it at least 15 times and still the same. Thanks for advice

    Do you have a video on how to calibrate actuators on an m series? Have a T-870 that has started giving a W3250 code after running it for awhile (45 min- 1hr) and wanting to try avoid replacing it if not necessary.

    873 G with ACS hand control only.
    I just replaced tilt actuator.
    Trying to recalibrate using the method you show in the video but I keep getting 32-40 code.
    I think the problem might be During recalibration I do not hear the actuators recalibrating.
    Any recommendations on what to try next?
    Thanks!

    • @tetradgroup
      @tetradgroup  Před 2 lety +1

      32-40 is for the right handle sensor. If the sensor in the handle is out of neutral it will not initiate the calibration process.

    • @coledogger2227
      @coledogger2227 Před 2 lety

      How do I get the right handle sensor to neutral?
      One more observation is that when operating the tilt it vibrates with slow tilt either way.
      Not noticeable when with full tilt in and out.

    I have an 04 S300 and once and while my bucket lift hand controls becomes slow, I do the recalibration and then it works fine but it will at some point within a day or two of operating it will get slow again. One time I had the lift run away on me and kept going up with no input from me on hand controls. Any ideas? Appreciate any advice you could offer

      Sounds like the ACS controller is going bad. I would replace the joystick sensor and the ACS controller to make sure the issue is solved especially if you don't have any codes. Boom movement without input is dangerous.

    Greetings from Romania , i have some problems with my bobcat s130 2008 with electric joysticks, i use iso controls , ive noticed that that sometimes when i open or close bucket he doesn t open or close with 100% speed , more like 20% speed , and if i hit again the comand its working fine , any idea what it could be? Thanks :)

    • @tetradgroup

      Hard to say but I would suspect paddle switch not working correctly on the joystick. I'm assuming you are working a hydraulic bucket. The dealer could monitor switch position on the computer.

    If I buy and replace the actuator myself or get one that is rebuilt will I be able to use this calibration method on the new one and get it to work or does a newly installed actuator require dealer to use software to program it?

    Thank you for your videos. Hopefully you get this comment. I am having trouble with my 2013 s530 with ACS. I’m getting an intermittent code for m3204. It says bobcat unable to communicate with ACS and it won’t unlock the controls. If I wait an hour and come back it works fine. I have changed the Switch for the hand and foot controls and I changed the ACS solenoid. The fuses and relays are also good. Do you have any suggestions on where I can look to figure this problem out? Thank you.

      ACS controller is failing internally, very common when it gets hot. You will need to replace the controller and program.

    I have an S300. Done this successfully before on this machine, but now as I follow the steps, my handles won't unlock. I start in "hand" position, turn the key to "on" (not run), hit the unlock green button, pull the bar down, but no unlocking of the handles. I have tried a few different coombinations, pulling the bar down and then hitting the unlock, but no success yet. What can be keeping those handles locked?
