Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The instrument panel cluster (IPC) receives engine RPM information from the powertrain control module (PCM). Engine RPM input information is obtained from the PCM on a dedicated engine speed input to the IPC. The IPC also receives engine RPM data on the serial data line. The PCM is responsible for processing and sending engine RPM data to the IPC. The IPC will only display the engine RPM data that was sent by the PCM. The IPC monitors the engine RPM output information sent from the PCM for an out of range condition.
