Vehicle Speed From The Transaxle Control Module (TCM)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Mercury Milan, 2011 Lincoln MKZ, 2011 Ford Fusion, 2010 Mercury Milan, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The TCM calculates traction motor speed from the traction motor shaft speed sensor and combines it with (PCM stored) tire size and axle ratio data to determine vehicle speed. This calculation is then sent to the PCM over the communication network.
