Vehicles Without Navigation

The compass signal originates from the compass module, which is integrated into the auto-dimming interior mirror.

The compass display is incorporated into the FDIM  .

The vehicle heading is displayed as a 1 or 2 character display located in the lower LH side of the FDIM  and indicates the current direction of the vehicle (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, or NW). The compass continuously re-calibrates due to changes in the magnetic field and remains accurate during most driving conditions.

The Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) buttons that allow the driver to operate the calibration and zone setting procedures are located below the FDIM  .

The compass display is on with the ignition key in the ON or START position. When the ignition key is first turned to the ON or START position, there is a momentary delay of approximately 6 seconds before the compass display illuminates. If the battery saver has been activated and the ignition is turned to ON or START, the momentary delay before the compass display illuminates is approximately 3 seconds. The compass display turns off as soon as the ignition key is turned to the OFF or ACC position.
