Cruise control could possibly not operate.

ISX and ISM – SAE J1939 Multiplexing Circuit – Anti-Lock Braking (ABS) Controller
SMALL | MEDIUM | LARGE

Circuit Description

Certain anti-lock braking (ABS) controllers communicate with the electronic control module (ECM) through the SAE J1939 data link. Under certain driving conditions, the anti-lock braking (ABS) controller can send a cruise control inhibit message to ECM and cruise control will temporarily be disabled.

Component Location

The ECM is located on the fuel system side of the engine.Refer to Procedure 100-002 in Section E.

The SAE J1939 data link wiring and anti-lock braking (ABS) controller location varies by OEM. Refer to the OEM service manual.

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 does not receive a valid J1939 message from the Anti-Locking Braking (ABS) Controller for more than 0.5 seconds.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active

  • The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE light immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
  • Cruise control could possibly not operate.

Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code

The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE light immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.

Shop Talk

Verify the electronic control module (ECM) calibration is correct. Check the calibration revision history found on QuickServe™ Online for applicable fixes to the calibration stored in the ECM. If necessary, calibrate the ECM for the engine being serviced. Refer to Procedure 019-032 in Section 19.

When this fault code is active, cruise control could possibly not function.

This fault is set active if the ECM does not receive the heartbeat message from the anti-lock braking (ABS) controller on the SAE J1939 data link.

This fault can occur for the following reasons:

  • This fault can also be caused by a malfunctioning J1939 data link connection between the anti-lock braking (ABS controller and Cummins® ECM, a malfunctioning connection between the component and the anti-lock braking (ABS) controller, malfunctioning anti-lock braking (ABS) controller or malfunctioning Cummins® ECM.
