Diesel Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Outputs: Tachometer

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Pickup, 2005 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2005 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Excursion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The tachometer is controlled by the instrument cluster. The PCM sends an engine speed message through the SCP network (Excursion) or CAN (F-Super Duty or E-Series) to the instrument cluster indicating the engine RPM.
