P1193: Manufacturer-specific fuel/emissions related code

Severity: medium

What it means: P1193 is a manufacturer-specific code. On many Ram Cummins trucks it points to a fuel system or emissions-related fault that needs the exact OEM definition for your year.

Safe to drive? Depends on symptoms. If the truck is derated, no. If it runs normally, drive carefully to a diesel shop with the code freeze-frame.
