Product Overview
An engine that will not start because the stop lever stays closed—or will not shut down because the linkage never returns—may have a failed fuel shutoff solenoid. This 24V unit moves the injection-pump stop linkage on the matching Cummins application.
Voltage is critical: a similar-looking 12V solenoid is not interchangeable. Confirm supply voltage, connector, linkage stroke, and mounting before purchase.

- 24V fuel stop/shutoff actuator
- Replacement for multiple Cummins references
- Fits matching 6C, 6CT 8.3L, and L8.9 applications

Match the full reference number and electrical/mechanical layout. Never substitute a 12V unit on a 24V system or vice versa.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this cause a crank-no-start? A: Yes, if the plunger holds the fuel control in the stop position.
Q: Can it also cause an engine that will not shut off? A: Yes, when the actuator or linkage does not move to the stop position.
Q: How do I confirm voltage? A: Use equipment documentation and measure the circuit; do not rely on appearance.
Q: Is it genuine Cummins? A: No. It is an aftermarket replacement.
