Applicable truck models
The procedure names ISX11.9 CM2250 and ISX15 CM2250 engine models in the associated procedures table, with EGR Valve Procedure 011-022 and ECM Calibration Code Procedure 019-032. The file information also places the document under Cummins ISB6.7 CM2250 (2010-12) / DTCs, but the visible diagnostic pages identify ISX11.9 CM2250/ISX15 CM2250 for the EGR Valve Position Circuit.

Who needs this Cummins EGR fault 1228 manual
This manual is for diesel technicians, fleet workshops, and service managers diagnosing Fault Code 1228 with an amber CHECK ENGINE lamp or MIL, reduced engine performance, or an EGR valve that tries to close. It is useful when checking connector pins, circuit response with INSITE™ electronic service tool, ECM calibration revision, and fault clearing after repair.
The diagnostic text describes an EGR valve controlled by a brushless motor using EGR motor A, B, and C wires, with three internal position sensors reporting valve location to the ECM. It lists possible causes including intermittent open or short in the wiring harness, malfunctioning EGR valve position sensor, malfunctioning ECM, and sticky or broken EGR valve. The guided checks cover active fault codes 2272, 2349, or 2353, inspection for corrosion, moisture, damaged seals, wire insulation damage, and connector locking tab damage. The final steps compare the ECM code and revision number, update calibration if needed, then disable and clear the fault code under the stated clearing conditions.
