caterpillar is a serious culprit with the new computer controlled equipment, any sensor shows a not on spec reading for over a few secs, it shuts everything down
requiring a dealer tech to reprogram the entire system taking a day, after waiting a few days for the tech to show up, by the time he does a big job has more then one shut down
at least once a week something shuts down right in the middle of what ever the operator was doing, no clue even why in most cases, almost never need a sensor or anything replaced, just need to reset the computer so it will go past whatever it thought was wrong that has almost always been a very momentary thing. Not possible for the owner or operator to access, and simply click the trouble code and reset.
The old wore out equipment gets more work done in a given week then most of the new shit.
