Applicable truck models
This file applies to Cummins ISB CM550 (1990-94) engines using the idle validation switch on the accelerator pedal assembly. The extract does not name specific truck makes or chassis models, and it notes that accelerator pedal connector pin assignments can vary with the equipment manufacturer while the base troubleshooting logic still applies.

Who needs this Cummins IVS circuit manual
This manual is for diesel technicians, fleet mechanics, and workshop owners diagnosing Fault Code 431 where the ECM sees an idle validation switch signal problem. It is useful when checking a loose connection, uncalibrated accelerator pedal, miswired IVS, bad ground on pin A, damaged pins, ECM 5 V supply, or OEM harness faults.
