If you have a Cummins engine, your label
will look like the image below.
Engine Shutdown System
If the vehicle’s engine does not meet the
low exhaust emission standard it will have
an Engine Shutdown System (ESS) to
meet limited idle regulations implemented
by CARB and some additional states.
These regulations require that the engine
have an automatic system to restrict the
idle time on certain vehicles. An Engine
Shutdown System will shut down the
engine after 5 minutes if the vehicle idles
with the park brake set and the
transmission in ‘neutral’ or ‘park’. The ESS
will also allow the vehicle 15 minutes of
idle time if the driver does not set the park
brake and shifts the transmission to
‘neutral’ or ‘park’. The ESS, however, will
not shut down the engine if the engine is
operating in Power Take Off (PTO) mode, if
the engine coolant is below 60 degrees
Fahrenheit, or if the engine is performing a
parked regeneration. The check engine
light will alert you when the ESS shutdown
timer reaches the last 30 seconds before
the engine shuts down. The last 30
seconds prior to engine shutdown is the
only time the driver may reset the idle time
by pressing on the accelerator. More
detailed information may be available in
the Engine Operator’s Manual provided
with your vehicle.
