I use an alienware laptop that doubles as my tax machine, accountant laptop, gaming system and TV. And i use Diesel Diagnostics Software for Commercial Trucks brand scanner software. Be aware it cost me about $6,000 total between the laptop, the reader software and the upgrades so i could futz with settings. But....i also have an MX13
buckmanmike and feldsforever Thank this. -
Wow. So much information here thanks.
What I want to do is be able to diagnose what's actually wrong. 3 codes for a air filter and 4 codes for a nox sensor and it doesn't event tell me if its a inlet or outlet sensor. The air filter is fixed. Now onto step 2 the nox.
I don't won't to do the D, but from 65 to 30 with no warning really left a bad taste in my mouth. -
Ok so the hi tech part is out of the question. Such as high end lap top and what not.
Financially I've got no choice but to go repair manual and scan tool at the moment. Suggestions where I could get a book?.
The dealer ships "can't get them". -
With Nox sensors I just change both each time . One time the wire rubbed through on the nox sensors and threw all sorts of codes that made no sense , swapped them out ran force regen cleared codes and was good to go . Last thing , those sensors can be hell to get out . Good luck with everything.

Here ya go.I had to go through the mission of buying the hardware from OBD2tool and a laptop from Best Buy.Then had to find the pirated Cummins Software online.If I had to do it over I would have just purchased the laptop with everything on it like in the link above.Works on Cummins,Detroit,Mack,and Volvo.Not only will it let you pull codes but also run diagnostics test on the truck like a dealer tech would.
