The file is listed for Cummins ISB6.7 CM2250 DTCs, with the circuit heading also naming ISX11.9 CM2250, ISC8.3 and ISL9 CM2250, and ISX15 CM2250. The procedure applies to the aftertreatment diesel exhaust fluid controller, a non-serviceable SCR diesel exhaust fluid dosing system controller that communicates with the ECM through a J1939 data link. Component location varies by application and OEM, and the extract directs technicians to the OEM service manual for exact mounting location. See the manufacturer’s official information at Cummins official website.
