Code 28 - Wheel Speed Sensor Frequency Error
Toothed wheel generates a voltage pulse as it moves past sensor. EBTCM/EBCM uses these pulses to determine wheel speed. EBTCM/EBCM uses wheel speed sensor signal to calculate vehicle reference speeds and speed, acceleration and slip values for each wheel. These values are used to determine when anti-lock control is needed.

Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.
- Checks wiring and connection for problems.
- Use Tech 1 to monitor for vehicle electrical system noise pickup by speed sensor circuits.
- Use Tech 1 to monitor wheel speed sensors while vehicle is operating.
- Checks for correct resistance in sensor. 5a) Replaces front wheel speed sensor as probable cause of intermittent. 5b) Replaces front wheel speed sensor as probable cause of intermittent.
- Use Tech 1 to monitor wheel speed sensors while vehicle is operating.
- Checks for a short to ground in speed sensor input circuit wires.
