What is MID 28:

MID 28 refers to a problem with the Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM). The ECM detects a fault with the FICM, which can lead to improper fuel injection timing and affect engine performance, potentially causing misfires or stalling.

Why This Happens:

  • Faulty Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM).
  • Shorted or damaged wiring in the FICM circuit.
  • Loose or corroded connectors.
  • Power supply issues affecting the FICM.
  • ECM failure to interpret the FICM’s signal correctly.

How to Fix It:

  1. Inspect the Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM) and wiring for visible damage.
  2. Test the FICM to ensure it’s sending proper signals to the fuel injectors.
  3. Check connectors for tightness and cleanliness.
  4. Replace the faulty FICM if necessary.
  5. Ensure stable power supply to the FICM and ECM communication.

How to Avoid It Before It Happens:

  • Regularly inspect the FICM and wiring for damage.
  • Keep connectors clean and free from corrosion.
  • Perform routine diagnostic checks to monitor FICM performance.
  • Ensure stable power supply to the FICM and ECM communication.
  • Clue’s Fuel Management services track injector control systems and prevent issues before they affect engine operation.
