John Deere settlement: ten years of dealer-equivalent repair access for farmers and independent shops

The big one. Deere is required to provide repair tool access for ten years after a settlement with the FTC and several states, Minnesota among them. If you fix tractors, or anything with a locked-down ECU, this matters.

I did the same repair last month and your step 3 is where I got stuck. Wish I had this then.

Should be the same procedure, the part moved slightly but the steps match.

Yep, same here. The second time is always faster.

Followed along, got it done in about twice the time quoted, but it is done and it works.

Would this work on the older model? Mine is about ten years older than the one shown.
