This file applies to Cummins CM2250 engine platforms listed in the procedure tables: ISB6.7 CM2250, ISC8.3 and ISL9 CM2250, ISX15 CM2250, GX CM2250, ISX11.9 CM2250, QSL9 CM2250, and QSB6.7 CM2250. The fault concerns mismatch between crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor signals, with possible causes including loose or misaligned engine speed sensor rings, tone wheel damage, grounding issues, incorrect static timing, ECM calibration concerns, and crankshaft gear slippage after other checks are completed. See the manufacturer source at Cummins official website.
Who needs this code 731 DTCs manual
Mechanics, fleet workshops, and diagnostic technicians need this manual when an amber CHECK ENGINE lamp or MIL is linked to SPN 723 FMI 7/7 and symptoms such as hard start, rough idle, excessive smoke, or reduced engine performance. The procedure uses INSITE™ electronic service tool checks, visual inspection, static timing verification at top dead center, ECM calibration comparison, and fault clearing validation.
