Single function overhead console (compass) not working?
Any ideas guys? I did a search and all I picked up on here was repairing the overhead console with trip,mpg computer and the transistors not being soldered in correctly.
How about the overhead console in the XL trucks? The one with just a compass (I think there was a thermometer function too?)? Mine has not worked for about a year and I havent yet thought about fixing it till now. I actually did use it quite a bit actually when on trips out of state and I'd like to fix it.
Any ideas? How to remove? Wiring schematics?

Mine was not working at all when I got it. I took it out, jiggled the connector and it came on. Compass works, (after calibrating) but thermometer reads 40deg. low. Swapped the guts with another I had from an explorer, and it still reads the same. Replaced sensor behind grill, and it still reads low. Not sure what to do now.
I wonder if the compass runs to the PCM somewhere....I highly doubt it. I was sure it was on its own circut.
