RPMs

Is there a way to get the numeric RPMs to display in the RPM "gauge"? Exactly like you see with speed

Thanks
Sig

Not to anyone's knowledge, but a very good idea!

The Forscan gurus here haven’t been able to do it yet (if it’s even possible). I believe the F150/Rangers are capable of it though.

Cool

Numbers also show up on our 23 Expy! I hate that our 25 F350 has nothing in that spot!

Yeah the factory tach is useless. I have the Banks iDash so I can keep tabs on RPM and FRP.

Has anyone ever tried flipping the following hex value:

from
<DATA LABEL="720-09-02">
<CODE>300C</CODE>
<CODE>A10F</CODE>
<CODE />
</DATA>
to
<DATA LABEL="720-09-02">
<CODE>300E</CODE>
<CODE>A10F</CODE>
<CODE />
</DATA>

According to @Livnitup spreadsheet in the F150 forum, the following legend applies to this label:

Park Aid Control Rear Blockage Warning (PACRBW) • Park Aid Control Front Blockage Warning (PACFBW) • Digital Tachometer Feature (DTF) • Eco Coach (EC) 720-09-02 xxx* xx--
0 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF disabled • EC disabled
1 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF disabled • EC enabled
2 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF enabled • EC disabled
3 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF enabled • EC enabled
4 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF disabled • EC disabled
5 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF disabled • EC enabled
6 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF enabled • EC disabled
7 = PACRBW disabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF enabled • EC enabled
8 = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF disabled • EC disabled
9 = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF disabled • EC enabled
A = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF enabled • EC disabled
B = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW disabled • DTF enabled • EC enabled
C = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF disabled • EC disabled
D = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF disabled • EC enabled
E = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF enabled • EC disabled
F = PACRBW enabled • PACFBW enabled • DTF enabled • EC enabled

Looking at the AsBuilt Mustang data for multiple VINs, this byte is always set to 8, A or B depending on the trim level. For all F250s and F350s, it is always set to C regardless of the trim level. As always, and as stated numerous times here, may not do anything for the F-series...
