If the DIC display does not show a
heading, for example, N for North,
or the heading does not change after
making turns, there may be a strong
magnetic eld interfering with the
compass. Such interference may
be caused by a magnetic CB or cell
phone antenna mount, a magnetic
emergency light, magnetic note pad
holder, or any other magnetic item.
Turn off the vehicle, move the
magnetic item, then turn on the
vehicle and calibrate the compass.
To calibrate the compass, use the
following procedure:
Compass Calibration Procedure

make sure the compass is set to
the variance zone in which the

such as window, sunroof, climate
controls, seats, etc. during the
calibration procedure.

DIC Warnings and
Messages
Messages are displayed on the DIC
to notify the driver that the status
of the vehicle has changed and that
some action may be needed by
the driver to correct the condition.
Multiple messages may appear
one after another.
Some messages may not require
immediate action, but you can
press any of the DIC buttons,
or the trip odometer reset stem
on the instrument panel cluster to
acknowledge that you received the
messages and to clear them from
the display.
Some messages cannot be cleared
from the DIC display because they
are more urgent. These messages
require action before they can be
cleared. Take any messages that
appear on the display seriously
and remember that clearing the
messages will only make the
messages disappear, not correct
the problem.
