Description
Condition: EXCELLENT

Model / Description: Up for auction is a Genuine Cummins Engine Control Unit, part number 3163890.

This is not a traditional vehicle Electronic Control Module (ECM), but rather a specialized portable, handheld diagnostic tool used by technicians. Its primary function is to start and control the engine speed of various Cummins electronic engine families (such as ISX/QSX, Signature, ISB, ISC, ISL, QSK, etc.) for stationary testing and diagnostic purposes.

It effectively replaces the throttle pedal and other operator interface controls during testing, and includes a datalink provision to connect to an electronic service tool (like Cummins INSITE) for fault code monitoring and live data viewing.

Condition:

  • Excellent Cosmetic Condition: This control box appears to be in excellent condition, showing minimal to no signs of wear. The casing, buttons, and connectors are clean and intact, indicating very light or careful use.

  • Ready for Service: This is a high-value tool essential for diagnostic and testing work on electronically controlled Cummins engines.

Key Features:

  • Function: Starts and controls engine speed (acts as a diagnostic throttle).

  • Compatibility: Designed for use with numerous Cummins electronic engine families (requires the appropriate engine control harness, which is not included).

  • Power: Compatible with both +12VDC and +24VDC battery systems.

  • Diagnostic Use: Allows the engine to be run in a stationary vehicle, on a chassis dynamometer, or on an engine dynamometer for troubleshooting.

Please Note (Auction Terms):

  • Unit Only: The auction is for the Cummins Engine Control (P/N 3163890) box only. Harnesses (e.g., P/N 3163892, 3163818, etc.) are NOT included and must be purchased separately to use this tool with a specific engine family.

  • Sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS: The unit is sold without any operational guarantee or warranty. It is the buyer's responsibility to confirm compatibility and functionality for their intended use.

This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an essential Cummins diagnostic tool in superior cosmetic condition at an auction price. Bid accordingly!

 MUST PICK UP - 48 hour notice required
