Cummins diagnostic software allows you to read and clear fault codes, retrieve and load calibration files and more. There are two different programs available – Insite Lite and Insite Pro. Insite Pro offers more functionality such as being able to reset first-time ‘ghost’ fault codes and engine calibrations. It also allows you to do ECM updates and horsepower upgrades which is a very valuable feature for any shop that specializes in Cummins.
INSITE is one of the most advanced Cummins diagnostic tools on the market and requires a powerful laptop to run smoothly. This program is extremely demanding and has very high system requirements which can slow down the diagnostic process, even on a good computer. For this reason, it is best to purchase a complete diagnostic laptop kit that already includes a high-performance computer or purchase a Cummins INSITE compatible laptop with the necessary specifications.
A newer alternative to the cummins INSITE is the ServiceRanger 4. This software allows you to diagnose, troubleshoot and repair Eaton automated transmissions in one comprehensive package. It has a user-friendly interface and provides diagnostic support and technical assistance for all the latest Cummins diesel engines and electronic systems in heavy-duty vehicles. Unlike other cummins diagnostic tools, it can also be used with both RP1210 and Nexiq USB-Link adapters.
Another great option for diagnosing Cummins vehicles is the HD3400 heavy duty truck diagnostic scanner. This scanner is able to support many different engines including Cummins, Detroit, Caterpillar and Paccar manufacturers. Unlike other basic OBDII scanners, the HD3400 can read and clear manufacturer-specific private protocol fault codes. These codes are generally not cleared by basic OBDII diagnostic tools and can only be cleared using the manufacturer’s specific menu.
The HD3400 can also reset active fault codes and can clear first-time ‘ghost’ codes, which are typically set when the vehicle is brand new and not yet driven. This can save a lot of time by getting rid of these codes as soon as possible. Lastly, it can display trip computers and performance monitors on a single screen.
