12.The flow sensor or the stainless steel deflector plate is installed

backwards, and the grain is not hitting the flow sensor.

Solution: On some combines, the flow sensor or the curved stainless

steel deflector plate can be installed backwards. Take the flow sensor out

and examine how it was installed. If your yield monitor kit was shipped

with an elevator deflector plate, examine how it is installed. Refer to the

installation instructions for the correct installation.

Install the curved stainless deflector with the curve against the back of

the elevator housing where the paddles are bringing up the grain. Install

the flow sensor so that the grain coming off of the paddles hits the impact

plate (plate with curve at one end that attaches to the black load cell) at

approximately a 90 degree angle (for Deere 9x00 and Claas combines,

the grain will hit the impact plate at an angle of 25 to 30 degrees)

13.“EXPAND BU BELOW STD%” (press the SETUP key) is set to YES.

Solution: If “EXPAND BU BELOW STD%” is set to YES, any grain

you harvest below the DRY % value (press the GRAIN key) will be

increased to the DRY % value (instead of being reduced) before your

yield in bu/ac is calculated. This makes the yield in bu/ac higher than the

bu/ac calculated on the bushels from the elevator if the average moisture

of the grain is below the DRY %. This most often occurs in soybeans

where the moisture often is below the DRY %. You may want the

monitor to increase the bushels to the DRY % value to accurately

compare the yields of different soybean varieties. Use the top-right UP or

DOWN ARROW keys to change this setting to NO or YES.

Yield in Bu/AC

Always 0

1. 0 flow in bu/hr.

Solution: Refer to the troubleshooting instructions for “0 Flow in

Bu/Hr”.

2. You are not counting acres.

Solution: Press the AREA key to display acres. If you are not counting

acres, refer to the troubleshooting instructions for “Not Counting

Acres”.
