Case IH Puma 130-160 CVX Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case IH Puma CVX tractor lugs down and loses ground speed when switched to manual transmission mode
Switch to CVT automatic mode; in manual mode, the engine and transmission no longer share load data, so you must manage throttle manually. Verify transmission fluid level: PUMA 130 CVX capacity is 65 l (17.2 US gal); PUMA 145/160 CVX is 68 l (18.0 US gal) (page 379). Review fault codes on page 456 for active transmission alerts.
Manual Section: Transmission Symptom(s) TroubleshootingSuspected hydraulic leak somewhere on tractor, can't pinpoint exact location by sight p. 37
Inspect suspect areas using a piece of cardboard or stiff paper held near the hose, never your bare hand. High-pressure hydraulic fluid can inject through skin; system maximum pressure reaches 210 bar (3045 psi) (page 472). Hold the cardboard at each fitting and look for oil staining. Review safety precautions on page 37 before starting any inspection.
Manual Section: Safety InformationAlarm light or fault code appears on instrument cluster display during operation p. 456
Identify the code on the fault code reference chart on page 456, which lists the area of fault and recommended action for each alarm. For hydraulic pressure faults, verify oil level is at the MAX sight glass mark; normal system maximum is 210 bar +/- 5 (3045 psi +/- 72) (page 472). Contact your dealer if the code persists.
Manual Section: Alarm(s) Fault Codes and SymbolsDEF/AdBlue warning light on, SCR system fault, engine power reduced or restart blocked p. 431
Check DEF/AdBlue fluid level first, then inspect for quality faults: stained or cloudy fluid requires a drain and refill with certified product. Review fault type on the instrument display; fluid level, quality, and technical faults each follow a different resolution path. Schedule the DEF/AdBlue main filter replacement at 3600 hours or every 2 years (page 431).
Manual Section: MaintenanceThree-point hitch status light flashing and hitch not raising implement to full height
Check that the hydraulic master switch is ON (page 69) and verify oil sits between MIN and MAX marks on the sight glass. System capacity is 65 l (17.2 US gal) on the PUMA 130 CVX or 68 l (18.0 US gal) on the 145/160 CVX (page 379). If flashing continues, review the Three Point Hitch Symptom(s) Troubleshooting section.
Manual Section: Three Point Hitch Symptom(s) TroubleshootingFrequently Asked Questions
How to reset error code on Case IH Puma 130 CVX after starter fluid use?
The manual warns against using starter fluid (ether or other flammable starting aids) due to explosion hazards on page 4-4. For general error codes, you can access stored error codes from the pop-up menu and touch 'Erase all' to clear the memory, as described on page 3-76. However, there is no specific procedure for resetting an error code after starter fluid use, as its use is prohibited.
What error codes indicate transmission failure on Case IH Puma 145 CVX?
Error codes indicating transmission failure on the Case IH Puma 145 CVX will start with the figure '2 _ _ _'. These codes, along with a malfunction symbol, will appear in the transmission display to indicate a faulty circuit or sensor. For specific fault details, consult your authorized dealer.
How to reset transmission control module on Case IH Puma 160 CVX?
If transmission shifts become low or jerky, indicating a need for re-calibration, or if an error code related to transmission malfunction appears, the manual advises to "Recalibrate the transmission or see your authorised dealer." There is no user-accessible procedure for resetting the transmission control module directly.
How to reset hydraulic system pressure on Case IH Puma 145 CVX
To relieve hydraulic system pressure, first start the engine. Then, move the remote control levers fully forward to the 'float' position. After this, stop the engine. This procedure ensures that pressure in the circuit is relieved before disconnecting hydraulic hoses.
How to reset error code on Case IH Puma 130 CVX
