Hi Brian, question for you, when your newer combine beeps at you and
gives false warning signals, does it continue to operate normally,
or does it go into "limp" mode to try and prevent damage the
computer thinks it is having? I know some of the newer pickups are
having this issue, if the computer senses something it will drop the
top speed to like 30mph (don't quote on that number).<br>

<p>I've been running newer combine lately. The computer beeps at
me, tells me there's things wrong that aren't and freeze's up
once in awhile. It's time to get the old Ih W9 out and drag the
yard.</p>
<p>I know how to start it and the old girl never beeps at me. <br>
