Compass

[soduka]

Is there something that goes bad with these things that anyone else has experienced? Constantly it will tell me to drive in a circle. I don't, but eventually it picks back up on which way is which, for about 15 minutes, and then flop back to not knowing anything and telling me to drive in a circle again.

The car is not turned off during this time, this all happens while the car is in motion.

Cut the module off your rearview mirror and use your smart phone!

Well, if it's a 1st gen the module is inside your trunk close to the music amp!

my compass stopped working the day I put on my 5% tints so I keep the display with the date all the time.

That's what I say about the alarm module! Unplug it and through it in the trunk! lol. Helped me anyway!

I took my compass module out of the trunk of the 94 and threw it in the trash. Damn thing was annoying. The 95 works properly but I never use it for anything but this one is on the mirror, unlike the 93's and 94's. They are up on the amp rack on the right hand side. If it's acting stupid, either replace the module and calibrate or disconnect it inside the trunk and know which way you're going.

All I have is a generic rear view mirror, no fancy electronics.


Does anyone have a part number or know what this module is called for the message center compass NoLimit95 mentioned?

I think this might be what you're looking for if you have a 93-94

I will ask the stupid question, do you have subs in the trunk? I know I had to relocate mine when I put my sub in,magnet screwed it up

No subs, just started acting screwy the last few months.
