Hi All,

New here. I bought this machine new in Dec 2020, due to numerous issues had the warranty extended until Dec '23. For the second time in the 3 yr ownership period we have an emission issue with the above code putting the machine in idle only limp mode. The machine has only been dealer serviced for all manintenance since purchase and has approx 750 hrs.

Went to start and run the machine and received the error code which progressed to the idle only limp mode. Had the dealer come out, they said it was my fault when starting the machine because a low battery voltage caused the emission control system to fault out. Trying to invoice me $700+ dollars for a reflash of the system. Took them about 20 minutes, but the drive to reach our location was long.

My question is has anyone else experienced this issue with the polution control systems? Is this a justifiable charge?

thank you in advance.
