innacurate compass

Anyone know how to recalibrate a compass in a 99 Nav? Mine's off by half a quadrant (ie - reads N when I'm facing NW)

You need to change the region with a paperclip in the small hole in the module under the rearview mirror. I am not sure what region number IOWA is in so just try one until you get the result you want. Someone else will pipe in with the right number for your part of the country. If this does not fix it something else may be wrong.
