Why are my AGCO HayBoss G2 596 Farm Equipment moisture readings erratic?
- D
  davidbryantSep 5, 2025
  Erratic moisture readings can stem from: * Wiring connections: Check all wiring connections for corrosion or poor contact and apply dielectric grease to all connections. * Power supply: Verify the power supply at the tractor is constant between 12 and 14 volts; install voltage surge protection on the tractor's alternator if needed.

How to troubleshoot AGCO HayBoss G2 596 moisture reading errors?
- L
  Lawrence BrownSep 6, 2025
  If you're experiencing high or low moisture reading errors, try the following: * Check the wire connection: Ensure a good connection between the star wheels and PIP; reconnect if necessary. * Power supply: Verify a minimum of 12 volts to the PIP. * Ground contact: Ensure no ground contact exists with the star wheels and the baler-mounted processor; reconnect if necessary. * Short circuit: Replace the wire between the star wheels and PIP if there's a short. * Hay verification: To verify, check hay with hand tester. Contact Harvest Tec if conditions persist.
