P28B4: Cylinder 10 Ion Current Sense Circuit
Standardized SAE J2012 code · P28xx codes
What does P28B4 mean?
The ECM cannot read a valid ion current signal from cylinder 10. Ion current sensing relies on the spark plug acting as an electrode after combustion.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Common causes
- High Ion sense module failed
- Medium Wiring or connector fault
