20 Inspirational Quotes About Audi G28
How to Replace an audi lost key G28 Engine Speed Sensor
In this video Charles the Humble Mechanic demonstrates how to replace the G28 engine speed sensor. The sensor is located at the top of the transmission, above the flywheel ring gear. It transmits a signal to the ECU via the grey wire T55/49 and 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 an electrical signal 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 indicator to the G5 Tachometer in instrument cluster.
The sensor serves as a reference to correlate with the G40 Camshaft Position Sensor. The ecu needs to know when the crankshaft reached TDC, and the location of the camshaft in order to activate the spark and injectors.
If this sensor fails to function, the ECU will display a P00160 error code. This indicates that the Crank Shaft is out of sync with the Intake Camshaft. It could also be a sign of a chain stretch or a jump in the chain link of the upper timing chain. The code won't appear without the additional information supplied by other sensors (G4 or G40).
Testing is a bit tricky as there are two different connector pins and they perform different functions however the best way to test it is to measure resistance between the sensor and the ECU. It should read about 1000 ohms if the sensor is operating at its maximum. If you are having problems with this part, check for evidence of coolant or oil in the connector bay.
2. Injectors
Yesterday, as i was accelerating off the highway paytoll at full speed I noticed a significant reduction in power. It was as if the engine was running out of gas. Or my injectors were not firing. I pulled out the spark plugs this morning, three were soaked with gasoline and the fourth was unclean. When I crank the engine without sparks, i place a tissue on the top of each hole in the injector, the 3 drenched with gazoline leap out, however the 4th stay shut. I tried to test the ground connections of ECU pins 14,30, and 48/55. I found 0ohm. I'm assuming that the issue is elsewhere.
I also tried to reset PID but without success. The car can start when the G28 is not plugged in and runs fine when it is plugged in but it still has the intermittent misfire issue at higher RPM. The coolant sensor (G62) even if it is not plugged in, shows an ice temperature of -49c. I also noticed that the oil pressure gauge in the cockpit is showing 2 bar while the actual pressure is 0.0 when i rev the engine.
I'm not sure what to do. I think I've eliminated everything else. However, i'm afraid that I might have missed something. Let me know should you have any suggestions! TIA!
3. Fuel Pump
The fuel pump in the g28 can be activated by a signal sent by the RPM sensor. The GM-style sender is identical to the G4 and they both work in the 80 100 200, UrS and RS2 cars so you can easily find one at a salvage yard or from a parts store. It is simple to test them - simply switch your DMM into resistance mode and test the distance between pins 1 and audi keys replacement key copy - directorylinks2u.com, 2 (with the bump on the connector's edge facing up). They should be infinite Ohms.
4. ECU
Our 20vt turbo (3B AAN, ABY, and ADU) engines have an ECU that has to know the speed and position of the crankshaft in order to make decisions regarding timing of the fuel injector, for example. It uses a Crank Position Sensor G4 and an Engine Speed Sensor G28 to accomplish this. If either of these go wrong, you will receive codes on the diagnostic scanner which can cause the engine to shut down.
A damaged G28 sensor can cause an inaccurate speed counter for your gearbox, a gearbox that shifts more quickly than normal, or a misfire in gear. If you are experiencing any of these problems, it is most likely that your sensor is failing and needs replacing. The good thing is that they are very cheap and easily accessible, especially if you're looking at an Bosch sensor, which is what ours are. Alternately, the GM version of this unit is also a good choice.
5. Tachometer
A failing engine speed sensor could be the reason behind a slew of issues with your car. It is a crucial part of your audi spare key cost's transmission, since it relays information to the ECU about how the car's crankshaft is rotating. This sensor could cause the transmission to fail and other components in the car to be affected.
The G5 engine speed sensor is situated on the outside of the transmission, above the flywheel ring gear. It sends a signal directly to the ECU at pin T55/49 via an uncolored wire. The ECU is then able to process the signal to control fuel, timig and boost and then transmitting it to the G5 Tachometer located in the instrument cluster. You can test the sensor replacement key for audi any failure by checking the continuity between it and the tachometer, between the ECU pin T55/49 and the instrument cluster connection on pin T6a/1 (trace [79trace [79]) and between T6a/1 and the instrument cluster pin T26a/12. You should detect an average resistance of 1000 ohms between these points. This is a common feature across the audi Tt key Fob 80-100-200-RS2 range, beginning with the 1985 MC and up to the 1997 UrS AN and 1995 RS2 Du So, you may find some good ones in wrecking yards.
