Case IH Farmall 85A/95A/105A/115A Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case IH Farmall warning light appears on instrument cluster during or after startup p. 308
Check the Display Warnings and Error Codes section starting on page 308 to identify the specific alarm. Note the fault code displayed and cross-reference the error code identification chart. Inspect fluid levels at the sight glasses before clearing any code. If the warning repeats after clearing, do not ignore it — return to the fault code table and follow the listed corrective action for that specific code.
Manual Section: Display Warnings and Error CodesEngine overheating warning activates during field operation on hot days p. 301
Stop the tractor and let it idle at low RPM. Check coolant level in the recovery reservoir — it should be between MIN and MAX marks. Inspect the radiator screen for chaff or debris blockage and clean by hand or with compressed air. Verify the engine cooling fan is turning freely. Review the engine overheating procedure in the Engine Troubleshooting table on page 301 before returning to work.
Manual Section: TroubleshootingSteering feels heavy or makes a whining noise at mid-range engine speeds p. 304
Check hydraulic fluid level first — low fluid is the most common cause of steering whine. Inspect hose connections at the steering circuit for weeping or air ingestion as shown in the Hydraulic System Troubleshooting guide on page 304. On 4WD models, the steering pump pressure relief is set to 170 bar (2465 PSI); if noise persists with correct fluid level, have the circuit pressure verified by a dealer before operating further.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System TroubleshootingMFWD (mechanical front wheel drive) disengages unexpectedly or fails to engage p. 303
Verify the MFWD switch on the operator's platform is fully actuated and not sticking in the intermediate position. Check the switch and connector for corrosion or moisture intrusion. Review the Electrical System Troubleshooting section on page 303 for starter and relay circuit checks that apply to MFWD relay faults. If the switch clicks but the front axle does not respond, have the relay tested before field use.
Manual Section: Electrical System TroubleshootingA/C system blows warm air after sitting over winter or during first summer use p. 99
Check that the A/C compressor engages when the system is switched on — listen for the clutch click. Inspect the cabin air filter for blockage per the Maintenance schedule on page 219. The system holds 1.6 kg of refrigerant (page 99); low charge is the most common cause of warm air. If the compressor engages but cooling is poor, have refrigerant level checked with manifold gauges by a qualified technician before adding refrigerant.
Manual Section: MaintenanceClutch pedal feels soft or has excessive travel making gear changes difficult p. 239
Check that the clutch pedal free play is within spec — on cab-equipped models the total stroke is 145.0 mm (page 239). Adjust the linkage at the pedal stop per the maintenance procedure and recheck pedal feel. If travel remains excessive after adjustment, inspect for hydraulic fluid weeping at the clutch master cylinder reservoir. Refer to the Brakes Troubleshooting section on page 306 for soft-pedal diagnostics that share the same hydraulic circuit inspection steps.
Manual Section: TroubleshootingFrequently Asked Questions
What are the recommended service intervals?
The manual provides a comprehensive maintenance chart detailing service intervals such as "Every 10 hours or each day" for engine oil level and battery checks, "Initial 50 hours" for tightening bolts and checking various components, "Every 50 hours" for greasing points, "Every 100 hours" for air-conditioning condenser cleaning, "Every 300 hours" for hydraulic circuit oil filter replacement, "Every 600 hours" for engine oil and fuel filter changes, "Every 1200 hours or annually" for air filter replacement, "Every 1200 hours or two years" for front axle oil replacement, and "Every 3600 hours" for engine coolant fluid change.
What fluids and capacities does this machine require?
The machine requires specific fluids and capacities, including 14 L (3.7 US gal) of CASE IH AKCELA ACTIFULL™ OT EXTENDED LIFE COOLANT for cooling system without cab, 8.5 L (2.25 US gal) of CASE IH AKCELA UNITEK NO. 1™ SBL CJ-4 SAE 10W-40 engine oil, 0.4 L (0.11 US gal) of CASE IH AKCELA LHM FLUID NH 610 A for the brake control circuit, and 46 L (12.15 US gal) of CASE IH AKCELA NEXPLORE™ FLUID NH 410B for rear transmission.
How to troubleshoot engine won't start?
If the engine will not start or is difficult to start, possible causes include an incorrect starting procedure, low or empty fuel level, air in the fuel system, incorrect engine oil viscosity, unsuitable fuel for ambient temperature, contaminated fuel system, or a clogged fuel filter. The corresponding corrections are to check the starting procedure, check fuel level, bleed the fuel system, use the correct oil viscosity, use the right fuel type, clean the fuel system, or replace the fuel filter element.
What are the hydraulic system specifications?
The hydraulic system uses a tandem gear pump. For Synchro Shuttle™ models, the high-pressure circuit pump capacity is 19.00 cm³ (1.16 in³) with a flow of 47.50 l/min (12.55 US gpm) and a maximum pressure of 190.0 bar (2755.0 psi). The low-pressure circuit has a pump capacity of 11.00 cm³ (0.67 in³) with a flow of 27.50 l/min (7.26 US gpm) and a maximum pressure of 170.0 bar (2465.0 psi).
What torque specifications are listed?
The manual lists several torque specifications: front wheel disc to hub nuts require 220 N·m (162.3 lb ft), rear wheel disc to hub nuts require 310 N·m (228.6 lb ft), and disc to rim nuts require 250.0 N·m (184.4 lb ft). For front wheel track adjustment, retaining bolts and nuts are 220 N·m (22.5 kgm), and steering rod locking screws are 39 N·m (4 kgm). The exhaust pipe mounting torque is 40 N·m (29.7 ftlbs).
