Cummins X15 CM2450 X124B (2018 & Newer) Fault Code: 2963 PID: PID 110 SPN: 110 FMI: 15 Engine Coolant Temperature- Data Valid But Above Normal Operational Range- Least Severe Level

Circuit Description
The coolant temperature sensor is a variable resistor sensor and is used to measure the temperature of the coolant of the engine. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to the coolant temperature signal circuit. The ECM monitors the change in voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor to determine the coolant temperature.

Component Location
The engine coolant temperature sensor is located on the thermostat housing.

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

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the engine coolant temperature was greater than 107°C [225°F].

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
The ECM logs the fault code immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
The torque output of the engine will be reduced.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
To validate the repair using a Diagnostic Road Test, utilize a route that incorporates both stop and go city type driving and steady state highway type driving. It may be necessary to load the unit for certain diagnostics in the ECM to run.
To validate the repair using a Chassis Dynamometer, utilize a routine that incorporates acceleration and motoring events, steady state highway type operation, and load. This will simulate normal driving and allow the diagnostics in the ECM to run.
The fault code status displayed by INSITE™ electronic service tool will change to INACTIVE 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
This fault code indicates that coolant temperature has exceeded the engine protection limits for high coolant temperature. Refer to Engine Coolant Temperature Above Normal symptom troubleshooting tree in the base engine service manual.

Possible Cause:
1) Coolant temperature sensor failure
2) ECM calibration
