New Holland TC18, TC21D, TC24D Common Problems This Manual Covers
New Holland TC18 TC21D TC24D hydrostatic transmission leaks fluid and tractor fails to operate after resealing
Inspect the port block and cover sealing surfaces using the troubleshooting guide on page 407. Torque the hydrostatic transmission cover screws to 2-2.5 N·m (1.4 - 1.9 ft lbs). Verify the HST port block retaining bolts are tightened to 31-38 N·m (23 - 28 ft lbs) during reassembly.
Manual Section: Hydrostatic Transmission Troubleshooting p. 407Front wheel drive differential slips under load and steering jerks during operation
Measure the clearance between the differential pinion and pinion shaft using a feeler gauge. Replace components if clearance exceeds 0.1 - 0.3 mm (0.004 - 0.012 in.) as specified on page 296. Torque the ring gear to 26 N·m (19 - 21 ft lbs) during final assembly.
Manual Section: Front Axle - Front Wheel Drive p. 296Rear power take-off shaft fails to engage or slips constantly under heavy implement load
Check the power take-off clutch assembly and output shaft bearings. Measure shaft end play with a dial indicator. Adjust the shims to achieve a shaft end play of 0.05-0.18 mm (0.002 - 0.007 inches) as detailed on page 417. Replace worn clutch plates if slippage continues.
Manual Section: Power Take-Off Systems p. 417Engine overheats rapidly under heavy load and coolant temperature gauge stops working completely
Inspect the electrical panel on page 643 and replace the blown 10-amp instrument panel fuse. Test the coolant temperature sender resistance with a multimeter. Replace the sender if it does not read 54.5 ± 2.7 ohms at 105°C (221°F). Clean the dirty hydrostatic cooler fins on page 407.
