The extract identifies this procedure for Cummins ISX11.9 CM2250, ISX15 CM2250, and GX CM2250 engine applications in the associated procedure table. The opening circuit section labels the fault as “ISX11.9 CM2250/ISX15 CM2250 – Intake Manifold 1 Pressure Circuit,” and the diagnostic concerns Fault Code 3361, SPN 102, FMI 10/10.

Who needs this Cummins 3361 troubleshooting manual
Workshop technicians need this Cummins 3361 troubleshooting manual when an amber CHECK ENGINE lamp or MIL is tied to Intake Manifold 1 Pressure – Abnormal Rate of Change. It is useful for mechanics checking a slow VGT actuator response, high exhaust restriction, aftertreatment damage, wiring connector condition, or ECM calibration level.
The procedure states that the ECM supplies a 5 volt circuit and sensor return to the intake manifold pressure sensor, then monitors the signal voltage to evaluate turbocharger performance. It lists possible reduced engine performance as the effect of Fault Code 3361 and notes that the diagnostic runs continuously when the engine is running. The guided checks use INSITE™ electronic service tool to confirm active fault codes, review related Fault Code 1938 or 2636, and verify anti-tampering sensitivity level before mechanical inspection.
Later steps cover VGT actuator connector pins, actuator drive gear damage, turbocharger shaft movement, sector gear gauge requirements, and output gear calibration. The document warns not to use pliers or other tools to rotate the VGT actuator gear because damage can occur. If the VGT actuator gear does not move when connected to the engine wiring harness, the procedure directs repeated disconnect and reconnect checks, manual rotation by hand, and replacement when required.
After the VGT checks, the procedure directs an aftertreatment initial check to test for a malfunctioning diesel particulate filter and progressive damage. The final steps review ECM Calibration Revision History, compare ECM code and revision number, calibrate if required, then operate the engine under the stated clearing conditions so the fault can become inactive.
