This is not an electrical fault on a sensor. FMI 31 means the ECM has detected that the named condition for HVESP2 State of Health is true. The fault code itself is the message; the fix is to find out why the ECM believes the condition exists.
It turns on the red STOP ENGINE lamp. Cummins classes this as a fault that can damage the engine or aftertreatment if ignored: stop as soon as it is safe to do so. Many calibrations also apply an engine-protection derate while the fault is active.
On a generic J1939 scan tool, or on the dash of a Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt, International or Volvo chassis, the same fault is shown as SPN 11257 FMI 31 rather than as Cummins code 15935. Cummins INSITE and Calterm show the Cummins number, the SPN / FMI pair and the lamp together.

J1939 failure mode identifiers (FMI)
FMI 31 is highlighted. The FMI is the second half of every J1939 fault and tells you how the component failed; the SPN tells you which component.

Questions about code 15935
What does Cummins fault code 15935 mean?
Cummins 15935 is "HVESP2 State of Health - Condition Exists". It maps to SPN 11257 FMI 31. This is not an electrical fault on a sensor. FMI 31 means the ECM has detected that the named condition for HVESP2 State of Health is true. The fault code itself is the message; the fix is to find out why the ECM believes the condition exists.
Which lamp does fault code 15935 turn on?
Red STOP lamp: It turns on the red STOP ENGINE lamp. Cummins classes this as a fault that can damage the engine or aftertreatment if ignored: stop as soon as it is safe to do so. Many calibrations also apply an engine-protection derate while the fault is active.
How do I clear or permanently delete Cummins code 15935?
An active code goes inactive on its own once the condition is gone; the inactive record stays in the ECM fault history until it is cleared with Cummins INSITE (or a J1939 tool that supports the DM3 / DM11 clear). If the code keeps coming back because the part is gone, disconnected or not worth repairing, the lasting fix is to disable fault 15935 in the calibration: upload your .xcal to the ECFG Superstore file service, custom DTC delete from $150 (up to 30 codes), full DPF / EGR / SCR delete $500, and flash the returned file with Calterm or INSITE.
