Hello All ,
got an 8BRU18 throwing codes 67 and 18 that has been shutting down mid lift and losing all power during transit including dead man not working when power goes (something that should not happen) and only code that will show at that time is 67..... found a split in the main harness , swapped out and 2 display boards in 2 weeks yet still getting these codes. Any ideas?

Code 67 - Steering Sensor Error
Software detected the three steering sensors (180° sensor,
Steer Stop A sensor and the Steer Stop B sensor) were all ON
or all OFF at the same time. This condition should not occur
during normal operation and indicates that one or more of the
sensors are inoperative, incorrectly adjusted, or the Tractor
Interface Card or wiring is a problem. There may also be
mechanical problems causing the code.
