Overview
| CODE | REASON | EFFECT |
| Fault Code: 3376 PID: SPN: 5319 FMI: 11/31 LAMP: Amber SRT: |
The system has detected that the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter differential pressure is too high following an active regeneration.
|
May cause frequent aftertreatment regeneration. |
Circuit Description
The engine aftertreatment system monitors the soot load in the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter. Under normal operating conditions, the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter is self-cleaning, where soot is converted to carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water. Under light load operating conditions, it can be necessary to perform a stationary regeneration of the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter. The soot load in the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter is estimated, using the aftertreatment differential pressure sensor and the calculated soot output of the engine.
Component Location
The aftertreatment diesel particulate filter differential pressure sensor is mounted on the diesel particulate filter. It is a combination sensor that detects both diesel particulate filter differential pressure and outlet pressure. Refer to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) service manual.
Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic only runs after successful completion of an active regeneration of the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter.
Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The estimated soot load in the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter was higher than a calibratible value.
Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
- The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after the diagnostic fails on two consecutive trips.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
- This diagnostic can not be run in the shop environment.
- It is necessary to use the “Reset All Faults” command in the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent to clear this fault and extinguish the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).
