Cummins ISX11.9 CM2250 (2010-12) Fault Code: 3236 PID: SPN: 4363 FMI: 15 Aftertreatment SCR Outlet Temperature- Data Valid But Above Normal Operating Range- Least Severe Level

Circuit Description
The SCR outlet temperature sensor is used by the electronic control module (ECM) to monitor the engine exhaust temperature exiting the SCR catalyst. The ECM monitors the voltage on the signal pin and converts this to a temperature value.

Component Location
The SCR outlet temperature sensor is located in the aftertreatment system. The sensor is located after the SCR catalyst.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs continuously when the keyswitch is in the ON position.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The ECM detects that the temperature at the SCR catalyst outlet is greater than a calibratible value.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
To validate the repair, start the engine and let it idle for 1 minute.
The fault code status displayed by INSITE? electronic service tool will change to INACTIVE immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp after the diagnostic runs and passes.
The Reset All Faults command in INSITE? electronic service tool can be used to clear active and inactive faults.

Shop Talk
This fault will go inactive immediately after the SCR outlet temperature drops below the warning limit, and will likely be inactive when the vehicle is in the shop. For these reasons this troubleshooting tree must be used for both active and inactive fault codes.

Possible causes of this fault code include:

Malfunctioning SCR catalyst
Degraded, diluted, or incorrect diesel exhuast fluid
Malfunctioning in-range SCR outlet temperature sensor.
Reference the appropriate OEM wiring diagram when troubleshooting circuits that utilize wiring supplied by the OEM.

For intermittent power supply and datalink communication issues with Aftertreatment Components, it is highly recommended that the OEM Power Distribution Center fuses and relays be thoroughly checked for loose, missing or intermittent connections.

Possible Cause:
1) ECM calibration
