This Cummins fault code 559 PDF is the official Fuel System Underfueling troubleshooting chart for the Cummins ISM CM570 (1999-02) engine platform, covering PID P157, SPN 157, FMI 1/18 and the Yellow warning lamp. It is a step-by-step diagnostic flow, not a general manual, and it takes a technician from symptom to confirmed repair on this specific code.
Cummins fault code 559 explained
The ECM opens the fueling actuators for a short time to pulse fuel to the injectors for combustion, and this code sets when the metered fuel is below what the ECM expected. The front fueling actuators are on the fuel delivery housing below the air inlet horn; the injectors are in the cylinder head under the valve cover. The ECM measures the metered fuel using the front rail pressure sensor, so the chart begins by checking for active fault codes with the diagnostic tool.
