Hello I’m new to the site and have a 2038r with 142 hours on it. I want to do a parked regen and I follow all the steps in manual and it won’t work? Once I press and hold parked regen button for 5 seconds it just goes off and does not start to blink? There are no warning lights of any kind on the dash. I tried numerous times and all conditions are being met so any help is greatly appreciated.

What are your soot percentage and hours since last regen. Mine wont park regen after the initial I did either, I believe because one of those criteria isnt met but curious myself. Im at 61% and 35 hours since regen with no luck either.

Found thisin another thread... explains my issue. "have a 3039R Cab tractor that has this same issue. It did a regen at 1500RPM's and only reduced the soot levels minimally. I tried to initiate a parked regen, but it also would not let me. I notified the dealer and he came out to see for himself what the tractor was doing as he had not heard of this before. He encountered the same thing I did, could not start a parked regen. He reached out to the Deere service rep for our area, who indicated that you can not run a parked regen for at least 50 hours from the previous passive or parked regen. The tractor can initiate a regen if necessary within that 50 hour wait, but you can not start one manually. Also, said that if need be, the tractor can be brought in under warranty and the dealer can perform a "service regen" to return soot levels to zero. Hope this helps. I have continued to use the tractor and have ignored the soot levels. I know the dealer will take care on any issue I have if one arises. Best advice would be to notify the dealer of your experience in case it becomes an issue"

Soot level is soot percent, 32 is the hours since last regen. Have you ever done a parked regen before?

It will run around 75% for a long time. I just let mine do it’s thing because no matter what it gets down to it will go back to the 70% fast anyway.
Yes, you can in 18 more hours, or the machine will do it itself if the soot load gets too high.

Man this is exactly why I searched for two years to find a low hour (398 hours) 33 HP loader tractor that is a 2002 with out the is EPA nonsense. Runs absolutely great too and rewards me with a satisfying puff of black smoke on startup. Absolute miser on fuel too.
Ahhh, I too enjoy a puff of black smoke at startup. And also how the older diesels would smoke a bit when heavily loaded.
No DPF nonsense on my 1025R thankfully but somehow it barely smokes. Thankfully it still smells and sounds like a diesel should.
That's interesting. Didn't know there was a minimum time interval between regens. I understood it to be set up to where a cycle could be initiated whenever convenient for the operator.

While I agree with you to some extent, there is nothing wrong with the OP's tractor, he's simply asking questions and possibly overthinking it.
As @Herminator said, they will run 75%+/- for a while. Before my last regen mine hovered between 70 and 76% for almost two months, it'd creep up and then I'd go out brush hogging or something else that really worked the tractor and it would come back down to 70%.

I didn't say there is anything wrong with it. I have a very serious bad attitude regarding what the EPA has mandated to virtually everything we use in under the guise of "saving the earth"
This includes:
ethanol
auto tune chainsaws with computers in them
diesel emission restrictions to make them less fuel effcient
windmills
solar
no nuclear power
transmission lines going to nowhere
subsidizing everything that can't make it in the free market

I agree with everything you said. It honestly turned my gut a little buying this tractor because of all of the emissions stuff, I deal with this stuff on a daily basis with our trucks at work.
Gotta disagree with this one. AT saws are awesome! My AT's (550XP, 2-562XP's, 576XP) are the best saws I've ever used. Nothing to worry about tune-wise, hot or cold, dry or humid, they always start and just run. The only downside would be diagnostics, but that's only the carb and coil. I have had no issues with any of mine.

I couldn't get parked regen to start. I found you have to apply parking brake, and get off the tractor. If you are sitting on the seat, mine won't regen.

My 3038e is auto regening every 30 min or so of use (right now its at 76%) and will not do a parked regen.
I been running it at low rpm's and not working it hard. what's the minimum rpms I should run the thing?
Thanks!!!

It has to be some amount of hours before would regen again, I was thinking it is 10 or 12 hours. What makes you think it is doing it every 30 minutes? Are you shutting it off during the regen process? It should be let to finish and needs to run at least 1500rpm to do it. While it will do it at 1500 it does not do a good job, it works much better at 2000 rpms or more.

I agree with @Herminator also, keep in mind that there is certain criteria that has to be met in order to perform a parked regen, that criteria is laid out in the OM.
