Connected Support
Service Advisor Remote – SAR
Service Advisor Remote is the tool that allows us to increase your machine uptime by identifying potential machine issues before they happen, reducing the need for diagnostic call outs and therefore reducing your costs. In addition, with your permission, your Ben Burgess Precision Ag specialist can remotely access your machines diagnostics system through JDLink to ensure its running at peak performance.
Remote Display Access – RDA
Remote Display Access allows our Precision Ag specialists give immediate support by connecting to your in-cab display. Once connected, we can assist with set-ups, troubleshoot and optimise the performance of your machine.
Expert Alerts
John Deere’s Expert Alerts system uses algorithms to predict certain upcoming issues before they arise. The generation of automated diagnostic and repair information allows us to take a proactive approach to machine maintenance which means less downtime for your machine and reduced repair costs.
