Looking for CAT engine ECU independent mechanic. We have several CAT machines we need to work on (dozers, graders, excavators). Any suggestions / referrals welcome. Leave a message here or via email to info[at]mtzequipment[dot]com or by phone 647-500-2441
What is top dollar exactly?
Depends on your travel distance, tools availability et. Please call me 647-500-2441 to discuss details. Thanks, Arie
Area code is toronto- Vetech's mrs. needs a canadian vacation. Got your passport? Road trip! Road Trip! ROAD TRIP!!!!! And make sure you get paid in real dollars, not those loonies. Exchange rate is pretty rough right now.
I'm not sure someone from the US can go into Canada and fix anything without handling plenty of red tape first.
We have about 30 CAT machines for which the ECU needs attention. Some machines are in USA, some in Canada. So are there any good independent mechanics who can work on those ECUs ?
30 Cats with bad ECU's???
I'm guessing they aren't bad ECU's, but rather ECU's that need some alternative coding/ programming, to deal with emissions related parts that may have fallen off into a lake.
that water work can be perilous.
What needs done to the ecu’s?
Some repairs and corrections. Please call me to discuss directly 647-500-2441
Why does this seem extremely illegal in this country?
Smells almost like a Federal agent trying to set up a sting ....
Perhaps there was a very selective solar flare that just took out this company's ECUs. My very limited experience with them is that work is pretty much a curve. When the machine or type of machine is new there seems to be a lot of recalls and bug fixes. Then everything sells down and you don't touch it unless you break it for a very long time.
Welcome to the HEF, fellow heavy equipment enthusiast!
The domain mentioned in the first post goes to a place that advertises Belarus tractors. I wonder how their business model works right now, with the difficulties in that part of the world, and sanctions.
Correct. Our company www.mtzequipment.com is a distributor of Belarus made tractors and parts. Without going into politics, tractors and parts keep coming, nothing changed. Still looking for a mechanic to work on CAT ECUs.
Why don't you get Caterpillar serviceman to service them, they'll do it for top dollar , they wouldn't have it any other way .
I was listening to a youtube video the other day, about John Deere turning off some stolen tractors from Ukraine. JD and Cat and for that matter anything with an ECU can likely be shut down via satellite just like GM onstar stuff. Maybe that is the problem? Here is the link
WANTED: John Deere ECU tech! Will pay top rouble! Airfare to Siberia included!
Didn't listen to the whole link... But consider the implications of real time information gathering from combines. Deere (for example) would know the current crop harvest before anybody else. Each combine reports, settings (that identify the crop) how many times the tank is emptied, where, and when. A knowledgeable broker will be able to take advantage of the futures market.
