The problem

On certain trucks, when using a cummins electronic icon service tool 2.2, an unintended engine start will occur.

The risk

Given the purpose and functionality of this service tool, this series of events would only occur in a service facility and could pose a hazard if the truck were to unexpectedly move or the engine to start without any warning, possibly causing personal injury.

The fix

Cummins is conducting this recall (Please see 06e063000) and will replace the icon service tool 2.2 with a new icon service tool 2.3 free of charge. Owners may contact cummins at 1-800-343-7357 or peterbilt at 1-940-591-4201.
