    A weird one. 036.0526.05 relates to the turbo wastegate position sensor, but I am fairly sure that although the turbo on your tractor has a wastegate it is a "dumb" one, not one that is electronically monitored. First step - can you check around the turbo for a sensor. It ought to be obvious by the wiring connected to it. Does the tractor still have the original engine installed.? Regarding all the inactive Codes, most of them are fairly common. A lot depends on when they Codes were last cleared. TBH I would suggest you do that as a first step. Click this LINK to learn about the Click Box which is the tool used to erase Logged (inactive) Codes, especially Posts 50-52 on Page 3 where a workaround is detailed that uses just two pieces of wire and a couple of terminals. 030 0248.02 - Datalink signals erratic. 030 E0179.1 - low system voltage 114 2233.04 - Hydraulic pressure sensor voltage below normal 036 0266.02 - Hyd pump pressure signal erratic 036 2417.05 - ether start current below normal 036 0100.03 - engine oil pressure sensot voltage above normal 036 E0232.1 - Fuel/water separator high water level 036 E0172.1 - High Air filter restriction 036 E0361.3 - High coolant temp Level 3 036 E0361.2 - High coolant temp Level 2 036 E0361.1 - High Coolant temp Level 1

    Wow, thank you so much for the information. I picked up the machine at auction so i am unsure as to the engine. I was able to wait a few minutes and restart the machine and go to work as normal. I will look into all the information you provided. Again, thank you so much for the advice!

    Take a look at the data plate on top of the engine valve cover. According to the system the original engine Serial Number was C6E07538, Arrangement Number 242-1399.
