Why Nobody Cares About Audi G28
How to Replace an replacement audi key fob G28 Engine Speed Sensor
Charles the Humble Technician shows how to replace the G28 Engine Speed Sensor. The sensor is situated near the edges of the transmission just above the flywheel ring gear. It transmits a signal to the ECU via a grey wire T55/49, then to the tachometer on the instrument cluster.
1. Engine Speed Sensor
Located on the edge of the transmission, above the flywheel ring gear the G28 Engine Speed Sensor sends signals to ECU pin T55/49 through an uncolored wire. The ECU then uses this information to control the flow of fuel, timig and boost. It also sends an indication to the G5 Tachometer within the instrument cluster.
The sensor is used to link the G40 Camshaft position Sensor. The ecu has to know when the crankshaft has reached TDC, and the position of the camshaft, in order to activate the spark and injectors.
If this sensor fails, the ECU will throw the P00160 error, which means the Crank Shaft and Intake Camshaft are not in sync and could indicate the chain is stretched or a jump link on the upper timing chain. However, the code won't appear on its own without additional information from other sensors (G4 and G40).
It is a little tricky to test because there are different pins on the connector, and each one has different functions. The best way to do it is by measuring the resistance between the ECU and the sensor. It should read around 1000 ohms if the sensor is at full operation. If you are having problems with this component, look for signs of coolant or oil in the connector Replacement Key Audi bay.
2. Injectors
Yesterday, while accelerating from the highway paytoll at full speed I noticed a significant reduction in power. It was as if the engine had run out of gas. Or, my injectors weren't firing. I pulled out the spark plugs this morning, three were soaked in gasoline, and the fourth was dry. I put tissue over each injector hole, and when i start the engine with no sparks, the ones with gazoline jump out. The 4th one stays closed. I checked the ground connection on ECU pins 14/55,30/55 and 48/55 i get 0ohm. I'm assuming that the issue is in another location.
I also tried to reset PID without success. The car will start if the G28 is unplugged and runs fine when it is connected, but still has intermittent misfire issues at higher RPM. The coolant temperature sensor (G62) shows the wrong temp value -49c even when i unplug it. I also noticed that the oil gauge in the cockpit shows 2 bars but the actual pressure is 0.
I'm not sure what to do, as i think i've pretty much completely ruled out all other possibilities. I'm afraid i may have missed something. Please let me know if you have any ideas! TIA!
3. Fuel Pump
The fuel pump in the g28 receives a signal from the RPM sensor. The GM-style sensor is identical to the G4 and both are used in the 80, 100, 200, UrS and RS2 cars so you can easily find one at a junkyard or at a parts store. Test them out by putting your DMM in resistance mode and measure the resistance between pins 1 (with the bump on the connector's end up) and 2 (2nd from the left on the black connector's end). They should be infinite ohms.
4. ECU
Our 20vt turbo (3B AAN, ABY, and ADU) engines are equipped with an ECU that must be aware of the speed and position of the crankshaft in order to make a decision about timing of the fuel injectors, etc. It utilizes a Crank Position Sensor G4 and an Engine Speed Sensor G28 to achieve this. If you encounter a problem with either of these, the diagnostic scanner will display codes that could cause the engine shutting down.
Some of the signs of a failing G28 sensor are an inaccurate gearbox rev counter and repairer gears that shift faster than normal, and/or a misfire when in gear. If you experience any of these issues, it is likely that your sensor is going bad and needs replacing. The good thing is that they are quite affordable and easily accessible particularly in the case of the Bosch sensor, which is what ours are. If you prefer, GM's version of this part is a good option.
5. Tachometer
A damaged engine sensor could cause a variety of issues in your vehicle. It's a crucial component of the transmission of your audi key replacement cost, as it transmits information to the ECU regarding how fast or slow the engine of the car is turning. If this sensor fails, it could cause problems for the transmission, as well as the rest of the replacement audi car key's components.
The G5 engine speed sensor is situated on the edge of the transmission above the flywheel ring gear and sends a signal to the ECU at pin T55/49 via an uncolored wire. The ECU utilizes this signal to control the flow of fuel and boost and also to timigrate. It also transmits it to the G5 Tachometer in instrument cluster. You can check for sensor failure by checking continuity from the sensor to the tachometer. Additionally, you can verify continuity between pin T55/49 of the ECU and pin T6a/1 of the instrument cluster (trace [79trace [79]), and between pin T6a/1 as well as pin T26a/12. You should detect an average resistance of 1000 ohms in these areas. This is a common feature across the audi replacement key service near me 80-100-200-RS2 series, starting from the 1985 MC all the way up to the 1997 UrS AN and 1995 RS2 Du So, you may find them in wrecking yards.
