Compass Module (If Equipped)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The vehicle is equipped 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
