This file is listed for Cummins ISB6.7 CM2250 (2010-12) DTC coverage and addresses Fault Code 3531, SPN 171, FMI 9. The extract also names ISX11.9 CM2250, ISX15 CM2250, and GX CM2250 in the associated procedures table for ECM Calibration Code and Engine Wiring Harness references. The diagnostic concerns communication between the Cummins ECM, OEM VECU or transmission ECU, multiplexed components, and the SAE J1939 data link, so vehicle application depends on OEM configuration and source addresses.
