This 18-page PDF is the official Fault Code 3566 DTCs troubleshooting procedure covering the aftertreatment diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) dosing valve circuit when voltage is below normal or shorted to a low source. The document provides guided diagnostic steps, resistance measurements, connector inspections, and repair actions for multiple CM2250-controlled engine platforms. SPN 5394, FMI 4 triggers the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and disables DEF injection into the aftertreatment system.
