wont start just turns over no codes
 
just bought it 2 days ago 02 24v auto ran great up until now only complaint is 12-14mpg.I went to start it up turned key on waited for the "wait to start" light to go off and turned it over started up fine then died couple seconds later now it just cranks.I have no experience with diesels or cummins.Any idea what it could be or how to fix it? btw im not real expierenced with 24v's so prob going to need to reply in new owner terms

Sounds like you arent getting fuel... I have had something similar happen to me so I know its fuel related. I had to crack the injectors and crank the motor over till I saw fuel, then cranked it and started up no problem.

i got it started..i live at apartments and didnt have long enough extension cord to plug it in so i figured it would be okay it got down to 21 the night before it wouldnt start went and bought 150ft cord and started right up in 2 hours thanks for help tho..anyway plugging it in could fix the problem without actually being the problem?

Sounds like bad batteries or you need a new grid heater, mine is the same way, If I dont lug it in at night it almost doesnt start in the morning, but if I plug it in it fires right up
