Standardized SAE J2012 code · P28xx codes
What does P28B6 mean?
Ion current from cylinder 10 is below the expected window. Spark plug fouled, signal wire shorted to ground, or sensing path interrupted.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Common causes
- High Spark plug fouled with carbon or oil
- Medium Sense wire shorted to ground
- Low Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
