Why does the engine speed indicator in the Ford Fiesta no longer work?
Years 2002-2008

Answer

If the Ford Fiesta's RPM gauge has suddenly become stuck, there is most likely a fault in its sensor or various wiring harnesses. It is located in the lower area of the engine, therefore accessible by going under the vehicle, and is recognizable by its rectangular shape. If both it and the wiring are in good condition, the malfunction could then concern the indicator itself or the control unit. The latter has in fact the task of reading the data received, processing them and sending them to the indicator.
