ISX12 CM2350 X102 and ISX15 CM2350 X101 - Missing OEM Fuse Causing Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) Line Heater Fault Code 3258 in PACCAR™ Chassis (Peterbilt™ 579 and

Issue
The fuse that powers the DEF line heater relay was not installed on some ISX12 CM2350
X102 and ISX15 CM2350 X101 PACCAR™ trucks. The fuse panel label does not specify a
fuse is needed in the required terminal.
Verification
Inspect the “L10” location in the fuse panel for a fuse. Units built without the fuse for the DEF
line heater relay will have active Fault Code 3258.
