*** IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL***
NHTSA Recall No. 20E-018
Cummins Campaign #C2302
May 29, 2020
Dear Cummins Customer:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor
Vehicle Safety Act.
Cummins Inc. has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain
B6.7 diesel engines that were manufactured between December 16, 2015 and March 24, 2020
and equipped with fuel module option FS90301 or FS90453 .
This notice applies to your engine(s) listed on the enclosed EngineNehicle list.
If your engine wa s manufactured between December 16, 2015 and February 25, 2019 , you
received a similar notice regarding NHTSA Recall No. 19E-020 (Cummins Safety Campaign
#C2127) pertaining to your engine(s). This recall notice supersedes the prior recall notice; you
must have the remedy described in this recall performed on your engine, even if your engine
was remedied under the prior recall.
If your engine was manufactured between February 26, 2019 and November 5, 2019, your
engine may have had repairs done according to Cummins Campaign #C2128 or ATC2278.
This recall notice supersedes actions under those field actions; you must have the remedy
described in this recall performed on your engine, even if your engine was remedied under
those actions.
If your engine was manufactured between November 6, 2019 and March 24, 2020, this is a new
action .
WHY IS A RECALL BEING CONDUCTED?
Fuel module options FS90301 and FS90453 contain an electric fuel heater. Internal electrical
heating within the fuel heater may create sufficient heat inside the fuel heater to cause plastic in
the fuel heater to melt and potentially catch fire. It may also cause an engine stall. A fire, if
undetected and uncontained , presents an increased risk of personal injury. An unexpected
engine stall may increase the risk of a crash. If this condition exists, melting of the fuel heater
or fuel seepage from around the fuel heater may be visible during a service event, smoke may
precede or accompany a fire, or the engine may become increasingly difficult to start.
WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT THE PROBLEM?
Cummins has released field Safety Campaign #C2302 "86.7 Engine-Mounted Fuel Heater
Safety Campaign" to correct this condition . This campaign is currently available at Cummins

Distributors and Cummins-authorized Warranty Dealers. The remedy will consist of the
following: (1) disabling the fuel heater by either installing a plug in place of the fuel heater or
otherwise rendering the fuel heater inoperable and (2) removing the fuse supplying electrical
power to the fuel heater and installing a cover over the wire harness connector. The repair will
be completed free of charge (parts and labor) and most applications will require approximately
30 minutes to complete.
This safety recall addresses the potential safety defect for your engine . However, this repair will
disable the fuel heater. Cummins is currently working to determine an appropriate cold weather
starting aid for customers that require it. Cummins Distributors and Dealers will be notified
when a separate field action is available.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?
Contact the nearest Cummins Distributor or authorized Warranty Dealer to arrange to have this
campaign performed on your engine. The distributor or dealer will work with you to schedule
the best date to complete this repair.

fuse as shown in Figures 1, 2 or 3 below (based on the vehicle).
Federal law requires vehicle lessors receiving this recall notice to forward a copy of this notice
to the lessee within ten (10) days. Also, it is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a
