Checking engine speed sender -G28- |
The engine speed sender -G28- is both a speed sender and a reference mark sender. If it fails the engine will run with reduced power (torque limitation). |
On vehicles with manual gearbox the engine speed sender -G28- registers six notches in the flywheel. |
On vehicles with automatic gearbox it registers six metal pins on the torque converter plate. |
Because the sender employs a different scanning method in each case (notches on vehicles with manual gearbox and pins on automatics), the form of the signal is inverted. |
However, to ensure that the signal received by the engine control unit is always in the same form, the engine speed senders -G28- on vehicles with manual gearbox are wired the opposite way round compared with those used on automatics. |
