When troubleshooting Cummins X15 fault codes 555 or 556, follow this additional testing, inspection, and documentation procedure to help identify the root cause of dusted engines. This is not a stand-alone process but must be used alongside Cummins troubleshooting steps. Cummins Quickserve will reference this bulletin for fault codes 555 or 556.

This may cause the transmission not to shift and the transmission service lamp to illuminate.

Loss of communication between the right-hand shift stalk and the vehicle may result in the vehicle being disabled after it comes to a stop, thereby increasing the risk of crash or injury. A warning will appear on the dash display when communication is lost, including transmission or engine warnings, ! next to DNR/DNRP indicator, - in the DNR/DNRP indicator, and/or chimes, depending upon whether you are operating a diesel/gas or battery electric vehicle.

Injectors must be replaced as a full set (6 injectors) and associated software must be updated at the same time.

PCI-2 software on these chassis must be reverted from NA202 to NA201 (Pack 2 injectors) or from NA206 to NA191 (Pack 1 injectors) to prevent incorrect STOP lamp display.

A new Starter Troubleshooting Guide has been created to provide a comprehensive list of starting system checks, which should reduce unnecessary starter replacements and associated warranty claims. Engine starting system warranty claims now require a completed Starter Checklist, a Battery Pack Midtronics Report, and a Cable Drop Midtronics Report. Claims filed without these documents may be denied.

Fuel Filters must be changed before first cleaning. EPA2021 injector cleaning is referenced in RMI for certain injector faults. Complete the procedures in E290. Discard any previous versions of E290 procedures always use the most current document from the link in the bulletin.

Certain tractors equipped with Bendix Intellipark Tractor Park Valve Module (PVM) may intermittently become stuck in the un-parked position and may not transition from un-parked to parked when the park switch is pulled on the vehicle dashboard. Warning which can precede or occur: Park indication LEDs on the park switch remain off after the park switch is pulled indicating that the spring brake system has not exhausted, and the vehicle is not parked. Audible exhaust sounds that typically are heard as an air-braked vehicle is parked will not be heard indicating that the vehicle is not parked.
