Compass not working F-350

I had installed my Florida Sun Pass transponder directly in front of rear view mirror and in front of the compass eye. Peeled off transponder and tried to recalibrate according to owners manual one more time. No luck. Now my compass still does not work and I need to purchase a new S/P transponder. F.O.R.D. FIX OR REPAIR DAILY Maybe there is truth to the old acronym.

OPPS, now DW is on my case. No owners manual for her. :R I better take the dog for a walk.

I got a chuckle out of step 3.

LOL...wonder how long it takes for that CAL indicator to get turned on by that process? :E

If it's not being corrupted by an outside signal, and recalibrating it per the owner's manual doesn't fix it, it's time to replace it.

If its still under warranty,take it to dealer.
in my 06 f150 it was fixed for free.

One time my F150 COMPASS quit working and after going through the books etc I figured out the problem was I had recently added a hanging Indian Dream Catcher on my rear view mirror. This is where the compass head is located that plugs into the truck computer on my truck...

I re-situated the loop around the rear mirror and all started working again...

Probably not your problem but submitted what I did...

I'm guessing the dream catcher was also capturing the compass signal????

Maybe a quick call to FORD Shop manager for some ideas...
