Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) controls the engine intake air throttle actuator. The ECM can open and close the throttle based on the operating condtions in order to regulate air flow to the engine.

Component Location
The engine intake air throttle actuator is mounted in the piping between the charge air cooler and intake manifold.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs continuously when the keyswitch is in the ON position and the engine is running.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the engine intake air throttle actuator signal is shorted to voltage when the actuator is commanded OFF.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
Engine intake air throttle actuation will be disabled. The engine intake air throttle will default to the open position.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve operation will be disabled.
Active and stationary regeneration of the diesel particulate filter will be disabled.
Diesel exhaust fluid injection into the aftertreatment system is disabled.
Engine torque will be reduced if the engine is operated for an extended period of time with this fault active.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
To validate the repair, start the engine and let it idle for up to 5 minutes.
The fault code status displayed by INSITE™ electronic service tool will change to INACTIVE immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
For On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) engines, the ECM will extinguish the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) after three consecutive trips where the diagnostic runs and passes.
The Reset All Faults command in INSITE™ electronic service tool can be used to clear active and inactive faults, as well as extinguish the MIL for OBD applications.

Shop Talk
Possible causes of this fault code include:

An open or short circuit to battery in the engine harness.

FAQs

What is the code 3582 on a Cummins fault? ›

Cummins Fault Code 3582 is becomes active if the SCR System performance is low. Luckily, Cummins Insite, TEXA and a few other equivalent tools, will allow you to start an “Aftertreatment SCR Performance test”. This test runs for 60 to 80 minutes and is really noisy, so be prepared for it.

What is code 3596 on Cummins? ›

The root cause of the 3596 codes is a cracked suction tube in the DEF tank head assembly suction tubes.

What is the code 3543 on a Cummins engine? ›

Troubleshoot the fault 3543 and the other derate faults will go inactive once resolved. The diesel exhaust fluid quality is not sufficient enough to provide adequate NOx reduction. Possible reduced engine performance. Troubleshoot all other active NOx sensor and SCR dosing system related fault codes before this fault.

What is the code 3572 on a Cummins fault? ›

Low signal voltage detected at the diesel exhaust fluid pressure sensor circuit.

How do I clear my Cummins fault code? ›

Using a code reader tool, connect to the ECM and find the “fault codes” tab. The displayed codes can generally be clicked on one by one. Another option is to select “erase all faults” and then follow the onscreen instructions. At the end of the procedure, the ignition key should be turned off.

Where is the nh3 sensor on a Cummins? ›

The NH 3 sensor 134 is positioned at the mid-bed of the SCR catalyst 116 (i.e. between the first and second SCR catalyst portions 116A, 116B), operable to provide an NH 3 composition value at the mid-bed location.

What is code 3425 on a Cummins engine? ›

Fault Code 3425 active? An open circuit or short circuit to ground has been detected in the aftertreatment DEF line heater 3. Replace the aftertreatment DEF line heater 3. The removal and installation of the connector corrected the fault.

What is Cummins engine fault code 3559? ›

Root Cause: Neither a good or malfunctioning aftertreatment DEF dosing unit can cause Fault Codes 3558 or 3559 to come active as these fault codes are isolated within the OEM wiring harness. An electrical short or open circuit has been detected in the DEF dosing unit OEM wiring harness.

What is Cummins code P203F? ›

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P203F stands for “Reductant Level Too Low.” This code is triggered when the PCM detects that the DEF level is too low. The P203F code can be caused by a bad reductant level sensor, low DEF levels, damaged wiring or connections, incorrect DEF fluid in the tank, or a PCM issue.

What is a Cummins 251 fault code? ›

SPN: 251
