Engine and engine cooling
- What is wrong
- On certain trucks built with cummins ism c876 engines, the electronic control module fails to recognize inputs of the vehicle electronic control unit or from a driver actuated dash switch thereby increasing the risk of unintended (or unexpected) elevated exhaust temperatures.
- Risk
- While this condition does not involve a risk of fire in the vehicle itself, it could present a fire hazard in a situation where the vehicle's exhaust is in close proximity to materials or substances that can melt, burn, or explode.
- Remedy
- Cummins, in conjunction with paccar, will conduct the remedy campaign. Cummis will install new ECM software. Owners can contact cummins at 1‑800‑343‑7357, peterbilt at 940‑591‑4201 or kenworth at 425‑828‑5440.
