John Deere 5220, 5320, 5420, 5520 Common Problems This Manual Covers
John Deere 5220/5320/5420/5520 tractor cranks but won't start, no fuel reaching injection pump p. 165
Check the fuel shutoff solenoid first: verify the solenoid fuse in the electrical panel is intact, then test solenoid function with 12V applied directly. If the solenoid clicks and fuse is good, test the key switch for continuity in the START position. Inspect wiring connections at the solenoid (pages 165-218). Replace whichever component fails the test before condemning the injection pump.
Manual Section: Electrical RepairEngine won't start after fuel filter replacement or fuel system service, cranks fine p. 133
Loosen the bleed screw on the fuel filter assembly one full turn. Use the hand primer pump on the filter head to push fuel through until it runs bubble-free, then snug the bleed screw. Crank the engine for 10-15 seconds; if it still misfires, crack the high-pressure line fittings at the injectors slightly while cranking to purge any remaining air. Full fuel system service procedures start on page 133.
Manual Section: Fuel and Air RepairChronic hard starting persists after solenoid, fuse, and key switch all test good p. 133
Inspect the fuel lines from tank to injection pump for pinhole cracks, collapsed inner liner, and tight bends that cavitate at startup. Measure fuel delivery volume at the pump inlet: insufficient flow under cranking conditions points to a failed OEM pump. Per JD technical solution #54399, an electric fuel pump installed in-line resolves this on persistent cases. Fuel system component layout and replacement procedures are covered starting on page 133.
Manual Section: Fuel and Air RepairVisible fuel leak or smell of diesel at fuel tank, cap, drain valve, or fuel lines p. 133
Park on level ground, shut off the fuel valve, and identify the source before touching fittings. Inspect the tank cap seal and drain valve O-ring for compression set; replace if the rubber has hardened or cracked. Check all fuel line connections for weeping at the ferrule. Torque any reused O-ring boss fittings per the service recommendations before refilling. Repair procedures for the tank and lines are in Fuel and Air Repair starting on page 133.
Manual Section: Fuel and Air RepairCoolant loss or overheating, temperature gauge climbing above normal operating range p. 83
Pressure-test the cooling system at 100 kPa (15 psi) with a hand pump tester before pulling the thermostat. Inspect the radiator for external blockage and flush internal passages if flow is restricted. Check the water pump weep hole for active seepage. On 5220 and 5320 models, the system holds 9.5 L (10 qt); on 5420 and 5520, capacity is 10.8 L (11.4 qt) — use these figures to confirm you have a full fill after any repair. Cooling system disassembly procedures begin on page 83.
Manual Section: Engine RepairPTO clutch slipping under load or won't fully disengage on CollarShift or SyncShuttle models p. 219
Remove the PTO clutch assembly and measure disk thickness with a caliper. On CollarShift and SyncShuttle transmissions, the wear limit is 6.6 mm (0.260 in.); disks at or below that dimension must be replaced as a set. Inspect the pressure plate surface for heat glazing and the release bearing for rough rotation. Clutch specifications are on page 42; full disassembly and assembly procedures are in Power Train Repair starting on page 219.
Manual Section: Power Train RepairFrequently Asked Questions
Torque specs for John Deere 5220 5320 5420 5520 engine bolts?
The torque specifications for various engine bolts are provided. For instance, the Engine-to-Clutch Housing Cap Screw and Nut require a torque of 260 N•m (192 lb-ft). The Engine-to-Front Support Top Cap Screw and Nut require 318 N•m (235 lb-ft), while the lower cap screw for the front support needs 176 N•m (130 lb-ft).
How to reset John Deere 5320 fuel system prime?
To prime the fuel system on a John Deere 5320 tractor, you need to bleed the fuel system. The detailed procedure for this is located in TM2049 Section 220, Group 15.
How do you fix john Deere 5220/5320/5420/5520 tractor cranks but won't start, no fuel reaching injection pump?
Check the fuel shutoff solenoid first: verify the solenoid fuse in the electrical panel is intact, then test solenoid function with 12V applied directly. If the solenoid clicks and fuse is good, test the key switch for continuity in the START position. Inspect wiring connections at the solenoid (pages 165-218).
