Lights out on your Fendt 815 Vario? Among the more than 550 parts for this Fendt 800 series tractor you will find lighting, electrics and trailer couplings.
With more than 550 parts listed, the Fendt 815 Vario is well catered for. Alongside GRANIT you will find components from HELLA, Scharmüller, Wabco and GRAMMER. Here is a quick guide to what is available and how to pick the right item.
Many functions on the 815 Vario run through sensors and switches, so rotary potentiometers for the rear linkage and push button switches, including the hazard light switch, are part of the range. If the linkage drops unevenly, jerks while lifting or will not hold its set height, the potentiometer is a sensible first suspect. After fitting a new one, check the linkage setup so the end positions are correct again.
Alternators and starter motors are both available. Before replacing an alternator, measure the charging voltage with the engine running and inspect the earth cable, since a poor earth mimics a failed regulator. For work at night there are LED spotlights and work lamps from HELLA.
A starter that turns sluggishly or just clicks is not always the culprit. Check the battery terminals and the main positive cable first. When fitting a new starter, disconnect the battery and clean the mounting face so the earth contact is good.
A windscreen that no longer stays open has a strut that has lost its pressure. Replace it before the glass drops unexpectedly.
Mechanical wear parts include pins, bushes, discs, seals and sealing rings, plus drawbars for the hitch. If a pin in the linkage has developed play, renew the matching bush at the same time. A new pin in a worn bush will be sloppy again within weeks.
Check the type plate to be sure you have an 815 Vario and not one of its siblings. For pins, bushes and sealing rings, the number on the old part is the best starting point. Compare it with the references in the product details, and measure the removed part if you are unsure.
