Hi, can you please let me know what can cause fuel pressure relief valve code to set on after washing engine . It only happens after wahing engine. AND everything goes back to normal after day or two. Truck sets derate and goes to restrictions turbo boost.
@ENGINESHOPJOE16 сағат бұрын
The engine wiring harness is not water tight and moisture is getting into the harness causing this. Unless you really need to wash your engine IE you haul hazmat or explosives and have strict DOT or EPA inspections I recommend you do not wash your engine. Of course if you have an oil leak or fuel leak then yes clean it off. I have a video up on a valve cover that all 8 bolts broke off in - flush with the cylinder head. It took a day to drill all the bolts out with out ruining the head (small bolts in thin casting areas). The washing did not damage the wiring or engine parts but in the long run it causes more problems than it solves. This is my opinion. BTW we had two trucks that logged faults after an engine wash. After you drive it awhile the heat from the engine dries out the harness. The fault happens because the moisture causes an electrical path (short circuit) between wires.

I have volvo 2019 d13 my fuel filter water separator is keep clogged and getting dark in one or two miles after replacing new one I have changed 14 times in last two weeks losing power and after 1 hours power coming back any idea
@ENGINESHOPJOEКүн бұрын
Look at the fuel in the tank and see if it is black in color. If the fuel gets too hot it will darken from the heat. This can cause the darkened particles to get sticky and they clump on the fuel filter element and plug it. If this is happening be careful as the fuel tanks will be very hot to the touch. I do not know if the D13 has any issues that can cause this as I do not know that engines characteristics. Do you have a fuel cooler on the engine ? If yes check to see if it is plugged up with dirt. Sometimes they put that cooler back by the driveline and it fills with dirt and grease. The cooler is like a small finned radiator and air cools the fuel in it. I could be wrong here but just a thought.

@ENGINESHOPJOEКүн бұрын
No test port but you can monitor the valve status and pressure using the data logger found in INSITE. The air pressure is what ever is in the air tanks at the time. The fuel pressure is close to what is in the on engine fuel filter at the time. It has nothing to do with throttle and more with rpm since the gear pump and its internal regulator controls the pressure in that housing IE the fuel in that housing comes from the on engine pressurized fuel filter head.

I have the 2019 I s x 15 2350. I want to be able to ramp up my idle for long intervals of idoling, but my truck does not have that feature as far as I know. Can you tell me if that is possible to add that through the cummins insight or some other method?
@ENGINESHOPJOE9 күн бұрын
If you have an automotive or on-road calibration in the ecm ,which you should, Yes you can. You use the cruise control switches to do this. When not moving turn on the cruise switch and then toggle to set or resume and see if the idle changes. if not hook up insite and look for PTO and open that section up and make sure it is Enabled. You can set default values in there for a quick toggle to set or resume or just hold the set resume switch in one position IE set and the engine should ramp up or down depending on settings. As a side note if you are driving and the cruise switch is off and you toggle the set switch you are changing base idle. You change base idle by turning off the cruise switch and then toggling set and resume. This is also an optional feature that could be turned off in the parameters.

2019 jake brake issues. Cummins replace the wiring hernis to the Jake's and injectors. No fix, add another shop, replace Illinois. They found a crimp o-ring on the solinoid. No fix basically. I'm having symptoms of weak Jake break where I need high RPM to have my jake's working properly in. Sometimes they just get weak, but if I'm at low RPM they most. Almost certainly get weak with a terrible. What seems to be engine vibration? When the jakes aren't working properly, please help.
@ENGINESHOPJOE9 күн бұрын
It sounds like you have some levers that are working ok and others not this can cause heavy vibration. You need to pull the valve cover and push the solenoid manual pin in the center of the solenoid and watch the levers. ALso when you hold that pin down no oil should be coming out of the bottom of the solenoid (the release hole when you let the pin go it dump oil pressure in the shaft jake supply hole). I have seen levers fail. You would not think they could as they are cast and machined. We have tried rebuilding jake levers with a jake rebuild kit and id say we see success 30% of the time. The rest of the time we have to replace the entire lever to fix the issue. Another cause of poor jake performance is air in the oil which i ONLY saw once. It was obvious as when the warm engine idled i saw bubbling coming out of the rocker arms with the oil. That was a oil suction tube oring that was incorrect someone had installed. Rarely do changing the shafts fix anything. So 1- all solenoids work and not dumping oil when pin held down to acutate jakes. 2-No air in oil. 3 watch for quivering levers they should all behave the same when actuating them. 4 probably replace levers. I know they are expensive. Last and I have never seen this make sure the ball plugs in the end of the jake (rocker )shafts are in place. If they are not you will see a major oil stream coming out of them when you actuate the jakes with the hold down pin. Sounds to me like who ever worked on it does not understand the system.

Can this cause problems with the egr fault 1866 Delta p sensor
@ENGINESHOPJOE9 күн бұрын
Usually 1866 is caused by restricted or plugged egr sensing ports. Those are the ports or pipes that connect the egr differential pressure sensor to the measuring portion of the intake system. You could also have an egr sensor with a problem or wiring etc. If your asking if the smoke can cause 1866 No that is a separate unrelated issue.

There is a great tool in insite for this. The data link tool in the tools tab has the ability to seperate can signals and allows you to observe them individually. The problem is Cummins only allows engineers to have access to it. I despise oem hoarding things like this.
@ENGINESHOPJOE9 күн бұрын
I know that test but did not know it had more options for engineers only. An interesting side note. Engineers have a tool called calterm (calibration terminal ) that runs in a dos box. It is quite powerful and has a steep learning curve. I was told by and engineer who was a field troubleshooter he uses insite 8 out of 10 events to solve problems he is called out to investigate. There are a couple reasons for that. One the engineers want the guys like you and me to feel like Insite is a sufficient diagnostic tool- and it is. Number 2 Calterm would be overkill for many problems they come out to solve. Calterm can log accurately 10 times a second where insite at best can log accurately about 1 event every 1.5 seconds. However in calterm you have to load schemes or modules related to what you want to log. It is very different then the data logger we are familiar with in Insite.

I’ve been getting this code intermittently for 2 years on my 2013 isx cm2350. I have Insite and monitor the said metrics. My diff pressure is never above 1.9 and a steady regen every 100 hrs. Oil analysis shows zero issues. This has always been a head scratcher. Mine is in the #3 cylinder. I treat every tank w fuel catalyst and Lucas fuel treatment. I’d love to get your thoughts. Engine runs great. Love your channel and appreciate your insight. I didn’t want to change injector for the sake of change.
@ENGINESHOPJOE15 күн бұрын
We had a couple units that had these injector faults that sound like your unit. Log randomly and really don't cause any disturbance in system operation. I would check if your calibration has an update that addresses the fault being logged erroneously. Your regen numbers are good so I would do exactly what you are doing - drive it. We swapped injectors in one unit that would not stop logging this fault on number 3 cylinder so we swapped 3 and 4 and the problem stayed with 3. So that makes it a problem outside the actual injector. Sometimes I think software is the problem but how do you prove that? I would tell you to run it as it is as from what you tell me there is no reason to change any parts. Thanks for following the channel.

Great video Joe! As life goes, been super busy so haven't been able keep up with videos lately. Interesting case study that followed solid knowledge, experience, and followed the data. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't these codes come out when Cummins went from injector trim codes to adaptive trim function. While they never spell out the entire details, my understanding was that each individual injector software model could be adapted to account for wear and drift that occurs over time. The strategy was when the engine was in a motoring event (zero fueling), the injectors could be pulsed slightly and monitor things like crankshaft speed/acceleration, NOx/O2 readings, exhaust pressure in manifold etc so ECM could calculate injector pulse width/current ramping vs actual fuel rate and amount delivered and apply compensation to the model. If the compensation exceeds a certain threshold, then a mechanical issue with the injector is assumed and sets appropriate fault code. I know the Delphi stuff I deal with does the same, but pretty sure it also monitors rail pressure drops as injector is commanded on to add an additional check. I have seen some people just reset these code in advanced ECM if it hard coded active and went on with life and I know of other occurrences with the ISL that they only way to able to clear the code was ECM replacement. Nice to see yours was truly a malfunctioning injector. As far as lift goes in this modern injectors, the ones I deal with latest generation of injector the control valve lift went from 4 micron to 1 micron (0.00004")! Trouble is mid western biofuel is leaving more or less a sodium soap residue on the armature plate causing misfires. Sometimes hard to strike the balance with modern emissions and OBD requirements. Thanks again. Steve

Hi Steve. Good to hear from you. Life tends to keep us busy. I retired and I still don't have time to get everything done I want too. LOL. I think you revealed more about that test then I could ever pull out of Cummins. I know when you do the Insite driven injector performance test the software looks for fuel pressure decay. Cummins also uses exhaust pressure pulses to check for misfires or partial firing. The ISL platform will log 2215's randomly for what seems like no reason. I had 3 service trucks in different locations that were having issues with logging 50 counts in a week. These trucks run all day long at job sites so lots of hours on the injectors. I was told it is "tribal knowledge this platform can log random 2215's". How is that for an answer from tech help.

No. Remember faults are driven by sensors or tables built in the software. If we had let this go I suspect we would of had a not normal fresh engine regen history. This engine was out of a crane so that makes it much more difficult to analyze aftertreatment history as duty cycles and exhaust temps are not consistent most of the time in these applications.

Can them Pressure sensor tell the lift pump not to work what tells the lift pump to run wen the key is turned on
@ENGINESHOPJOE19 күн бұрын
No the lift pump is not affected by the pressure sensor. The lift pump runs because of a software routine written into the ecm calibration. It is worth noting if you are trying to prime the fuel system using the lift pump the software will not reset the lift pump run timer until the key is off 30 seconds on a CM570 or CM 870. It is longer for newer generation ecms.

Great break down, thanks for that. I've come across this same type of fault code on large Cat off-highway engines. In those cases the engines were pre-emissions (Like tier1/tier2) so very little in the way of temp/diff press sensors to go off of. The owner (typically a mining company) wouldn't want to change out injectors as long as EGT's were in check and it would pass a fuel system verification test after clearing the code. Not ideal, but that's mining. I was not the dealer in any of these instances so I couldn't push any repairs even if I wanted too. Haha
