In a speedometer control system having wheel speed sensors as well as a
vehicle speed sensor, both a PCM and a brake ECU are used to obtain
vehicle speeds. Then, a signal corresponding to a vehicle speed is
obtained basically from the PCM. However, if it is impossible to properly
obtain a signal corresponding to a vehicle speed from the PCM, a signal
corresponding to a vehicle speed is obtained from the brake ECU.
Accordingly, even in the event that a signal corresponding to the vehicle
speed is not obtained from the PCM, it is possible to obtain a signal
corresponding to the vehicle speed from the brake ECU, and thus to
display the vehicle speed on a speedometer.
