Compass Module (If Equipped)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The vehicle is eqiupped with a compass module if an auto-dimming interior rear view mirror is not used.

The compass module communicates the vehicle direction to the BCM through a LIN circuit. The data is then sent over the MS-CAN to the FDIM, where it is displayed. The BCM is only a gateway for the compass information and does not control the compass display
