Overview
| CODE | REASON | EFFECT |
| Fault Code: 3167 PID: S382 SPN: 3556 FMI: 1/18 LAMP: Amber SRT: |
The ECM detects that the aftertreatment fuel injector has used up all compensation.
|
Possible frequent need for aftertreatment regeneration. |
Circuit Description
The aftertreatment fuel injector is electronically controlled by the engine electronic control module (ECM) through a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. The amount of fuel injected is determined by how long the PWM signal to the injector is on.
Component Location
The aftertreatment fuel injector is installed in the exhaust system in the turbocharger adapter pipe. The aftertreatment fuel pressure sensor and aftertreatment fuel shutoff valve are installed in the shutoff valve manifold. The aftertreatment purge air actuator is located above the shutoff valve manifold.
Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs during active regeneration of the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter.
Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the aftertreatment fuel injector could not inject enough fuel for active regeneration of the aftertreatment diesel particulate filter.
Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
- The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
- To validate the repair, start the engine and perform the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration Test.
- The fault code status displayed by the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent 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.
- For On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) engines, the ECM will extinguish the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) after three consecutive trips where the diagnostic runs and passes.
- The “Reset All Faults” command in the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent can be used to clear active and inactive faults, as well as extinguish the MIL for OBD applications.

Solution: S00003257
Verification
Conditions
- Turn keyswitch ON.
- Connect the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent.
Action
- Use the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent.
- Perform the Aftertreatment Maintenance Reset All procedure found under the Aftertreatment Maintenance Section of Advanced ECM Data.
Performing the Aftertreatment Maintenance Reset All may cause the fault code to go inactive. This does not mean that the issue was resolved, only that the efficiencies were reset. Troubleshooting must be continued.
- Perform the Aftertreatment Fuel Injector Flow Test.
Specification
- If the Aftertreatment Fuel Injector Flow Test does not meet specification, then a malfunctioning aftertreatment fuel injector has been detected.
Linked Solutions
- None
Repair
- Clean or replace the aftertreatment fuel injector.
- Perform the Aftertreatment Stationary Regeneration procedure.
Validation
- Connect all components
- Connect the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent.
- Disable the fault code.
- Operate the engine within the «Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code» found in the Overview section of the troubleshooting procedure.
- Verify that the fault code is no longer active.
- Check ECM Calibration Revision History
- Use the recommended Cummins® electronic service tool or equivalent to find the current ECM code and revision number in the ECM.
- Compare the ECM code and revision number in the ECM to the calibration revisions listed in the ECM Calibration Revision History Database for applicable changes related to this fault code.
- Refer to ECM Calibration Revision History Database.
