PACCAR PX-9 CM2350 (2013-17) Fault Code:2182 PID:2182 SPN:1072 FMI:3 Engine Brake Actuator Driver 1 Circuit – Voltage Above Normal or Shorted to High Source

Reason:
Engine Brake Actuator Driver 1 Circuit – Voltage Above Normal or Shorted to High Source. High voltage or an open circuit detected at the engine brake solenoid number 1 signal circuit.

Effect:
Possible reduce engine braking performance.

Circuit Description:
The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls engine brakes on cylinders 1, 2, and 3 by sending a signal on the engine brake solenoid number 1 signal circuit. If an engine brake is installed, there will be a jumper harness from this connector to the engine brake pass-through connectors on the rocker lever housing.

Component Location:
The engine brake solenoids are located under the valve cover. The engine brake solenoids are controlled through the engine harness by the ECM.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics:
This diagnostic runs when the keyswitch is in the ON position and when the pulse width modulated (PWM) device is getting energized or de-energized. In some cases, the diagnostics can also run at some fixed intervals.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes:
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the engine brake 1 pulse width modulated (PWM) signal was detected to be greater than 0 volts when the PWM signal was turned off by the ECM.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active:
1) The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
2) The engine brake 1 circuit will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code:
1) To validate the repair, drive the vehicle and operate the engine brakes. This will allow the diagnostic to run. If the fault code does not become active again, the repair has been validated.
2) The fault code status displayed by INSITE™ electronic service tool will change to INACTIVE immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
3) The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
4) 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.

N/A

Possible Causes:
1) A short circuit to battery in the engine harness.
2) A malfunctioning engine brake solenoid
