The instrument panel cluster (IPC) displays the engine speed based on the engine speed data from the body control module (BCM). The engine control module (ECM) then sends the engine speed signal information via the GMLAN serial data circuit to the BCM. The BCM sends a GMLAN message to the IPC indicating the engine speed. The IPC displays the engine speed based on the GMLAN serial data message from the BCM.
