Cummins fault code 2185 is documented on this DiagTechPro library page for Cummins ISM CM871 (2007-09) engines, where it flags a Sensor Supply 4 Circuit – Voltage Above Normal, Or Shorted To High Source condition (PID S232, SPN 3512, FMI 3/3, Amber lamp). This 4-page PDF reproduces the manufacturer description, shop talk, component location and step-by-step troubleshooting so technicians can confirm and clear the code.
Cummins fault code 2185 overview
Cummins defines this code as “SENSOR SUPPLY 4 CIRCUIT – VOLTAGE ABOVE NORMAL, OR SHORTED TO HIGH SOURCE” on the Accelerator Pedal or Lever Position Sensor Supply. Sensor supply 4 of the electronic control module (ECM) provides a 5 volt supply to the accelerator pedal position sensor. The accelerator position sensor is a potentiometer attached to the accelerator pedal. The accelerator position sensor varies the signal voltage to the ECM as the accelerator pedal is depressed and released. Low signal voltage is received by the ECM when the accelerator pedal is at 0 percent. A high signal voltage is received by the ECM when the accelerator pedal is at 100 percent. The accelerator pedal position circuit contains an accelerator pedal position 5-volt supply, accelerator pedal position return, and accelerator pedal position signal.
Verify the electronic control module (ECM) calibration is correct. If necessary, recalibrate the ECM.
