Applicable truck models
The extract lists CM2250 engine platforms rather than truck makes or chassis models. Coverage includes ISB6.7 CM2250, ISC8.3 and ISL9 CM2250, ISX15 CM2250, GX CM2250, ISX11.9 CM2250, QSL9 CM2250, and QSB6.7 CM2250 applications using the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter intake temperature sensor circuit. The sensor location is described as the aftertreatment system, at the outlet of the diesel oxidation catalyst and before the diesel particulate filter; the extract directs users to the OEM service manual for exact component location. Manufacturer information is available from Cummins official website.
