Can’t thank Bar Y Ranch enough for the continuous support of my business. Harvest is about to be in full swing, don’t forget to support your local guys who will truly lose sleep over your equipment. 👊🏻

There’s a good batch of independent technicians around here, and most of us are truly banding together to keep all of you out of the dealerships. We feed our families and try to keep your operations rolling while saving you money. Lord knows we all need to keep a dollar in our pockets right now.

Everybody stay safe this harvest season and reach out if there’s anything I / we can help you with. 🙌🏻

Apparently I’m having phone troubles lately since the T-Mobile switch, going straight to voicemail. If you’re having issues getting in contact with me, shoot me a message or a text and I’ll follow up with you.

Thank you! 👊🏻

Diagnose, diagnose, diagnose… 📖 ✏️

There’s no reason to be buying $2,500 controllers without a diagnosis. A local dealer told this customer he needed said controller to fix his monitor issue. Monitor kept shutting down every 20-30 minutes, but after a few minutes of sitting would start working again. 🤔

One look at the schematic and I found the ELX relay could be the culprit. After disassembling the interior I found the Diode had melted which was directly above the ELX relay, and seaped burned plastic onto the load side of the relay. 🔥

No shots in the dark, no parts changing, just diagnosing and fixing issues here. 🔧👊🏻

This was a fun one.. this machine was intermittently losing power to the cab, shutting the machine down immediately. Found No key switch power to the accessory bus and an excessive load on the ignition bus. Bad key switch?? Nope… Load tested the wiring from the key switch to the fuse box = NO LIGHT.

After pulling enough tape and loom off I was able to find the broken wire, get it repaired and throw in some loom to protect the circuit from future failures!

No parts cannon.. no shots in the dark.. Just diagnostics and time. 🔧👊🏻

This customer got ahold of us complaining of a no charge issue. Drove clear back in the boonies to get to the machine, but quickly figured out this customers issue.

2 is TOO HOT.. (I don’t think I could ever forget that saying from John Deere Tech.) anyways, one quick check with a multi-meter & found no battery voltage to pin 2 @ the alternator. After verifying through continuity & schematics, we over-laid a new power wire, and away this one goes.. No more hauling batteries from jobsite to home to charge. ⚡️🔧

Saved this customer from hauling this machine to the road let alone back to town, and that’s what I’m striving for. Convenience for you guys. 👊🏻

This old girl got some new mirrors, electrical repairs & an added in cup holder with charging outlets. Who says you need to upgrade machines when you can just update them.🔧 👊🏻

Thank you for the business Corby Troutman!

Tis’ the season. 🥵

I have teaching coming to an end, and a spotty book. Get ahold of me and let’s get repairs / diagnostics planned! Would love to keep the books full!

Going to run a “Summer Special” @ the shop starting next week, 10% off entire bill. 🔥

It’s been a very busy start to spring, and I’m pleased to have the opportunity to work for all of my customers and future customers.! 🚜

I’ve been lacking on the advertising due to accepting a part time job instructing Automotive Technology with Indian Hills, and juggling keeping up with everybody along with keeping everybody’s equipment running. I’m nearing the end of the school year, and looking forward to stacking my books full, and serving Southeast Iowa. 🙌🏻

Manifesting this dream one day at a time, and am thankful for everybody’s support. I’m here to stay. 👊🏻

Taking pride in your work is what will set you aside from the next guy.. 😮‍💨 💯
Did I need to spend the extra time scraping / cleaning all the grime? No not really, as a flat rate tech would’ve just cleaned the gasket surface & slapped the intake on.
Over here? Absolutely, I’ll go the extra mile to justify your bill. 👊🏻
200k mile engines are bound to leak from somewhere. This thing left my shop looking like it never leaked a drop. 🔥

Get ahold of me, and let’s get something scheduled! 📞
