Cummins X15 CM2350 X116B Performance Series (2018 & Newer) Fault Code: 3245 PID: SPN: 3936 FMI: 7 Aftertreatment 1 Diesel Particulate Filter System- Mechanical System Not Responding or Out of Adjustment

Circuit Description
The aftertreatment diesel particulate filter temperature sensor module is a smart device that communicates with the engine control module via the J1939 data link. The aftertreatment diesel partculate filter temperature sensor module performs its own internal diagnostics and reports malfunctions back to the engine control module using the J1939 data link. The aftertreatment diesel particulate filter temperature sensor module is used to measure the aftertreatment diesel oxidation catalyst intake temperature, aftertreatment diesel particulate filter intake temperature, and aftertreatment diesel particulate filter outlet temperature. The temperature probes are permanently attached to the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter temperature sensor module and can not be replaced individually.

Component Location
The aftertreatment diesel particulate filter is located in the exhaust system and is installed by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Refer to the OEM service manual.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs continuously when the engine is running.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The aftertreatment diesel particulate filter outlet temperature sensor reading was greater than 950°C [1742°F] for 30 seconds, or the difference between the diesel particulate filter intake temperature and the diesel particulate filter outlet temperature was greater than 1050°C [1922°F] for 30 seconds.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
Active and stationary regeneration of the diesel particulate filter will be disabled.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve operation will be disabled.
Engine torque will be reduced if the engine is operated for an extended period of time with this fault active.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
To validate the repair, perform a key cycle, 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 immediately 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, as well as extinguish the MIL for OBD applications.

Shop Talk
Possible causes of this fault code include:

Excessive engine oil or diesel fuel being introduced into the exhaust system from the engine
A malfunctioning engine fuel injector causing unburned diesel fuel to enter the exhaust system
A face plugged aftertreatment diesel oxidation catalyst
Reference the appropriate OEM wiring diagram when troubleshooting circuits that utilize wiring supplied by the OEM.

Possible Cause:
1) ECM calibration
