The direction display deviates from the true direction determined by the earth’s magnetic field. The amount of deviation varies according to the geographic position of the vehicle.
If you cross over a map boundary shown in illustration, the compass will deviate.
To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to the following.
Deviation calibration
A number (1 to 15) appears on the compass display.
If the direction is displayed several seconds after adjustment, the calibration is complete.
Circling calibration
When “C” appears on the display, drive the vehicle at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less in a circle until a direction is displayed.
If there is not enough space to drive in a circle, drive around the block until the direction is displayed.
Conditions unfavorable to correct operation
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:
(There is a magnet or metal object near the inside rear view mirror.)
WARNING While driving the vehicle Do not adjust the display. Adjust the display only when the vehicle is stopped. When doing the circling calibration Secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the vicinity. Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration. |
NOTICE To avoid compass malfunctions Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the inside rear view mirror. Doing this may cause the compass sensor to malfunction. To ensure normal operation of the compass

Using the intelligent tester to read the Data List allows
the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and
other items to be read without removing any parts. This

Mirror Motor Circuit
DESCRIPTION
A mirror control switch signal and memorized mirror positions are sent to the
outer mirror control ECU.
The outer mirror control ECU drives the selected mirror UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT
in response to the
inputs.
