I just installed the Daystar dash module on Saturday, and when done noticed the compass was all screwed up. I went to a large parking lot and performed the calibration as explained in the manual, and after several tries, it seemed to be working.
Went home, about 3 blocks, and all was well. Left an hour later, and the damn thing is screwed up again. Went home and repeated process, and all was well until I had turned the Jeep off, and restarted to leave, and it is not working still.
Anyone else had this problem.........

 

yep. had the same issue. make sure the compass module CORD is on the DRIVERS SIDE, when you reinstall it. when i put my daystar on it was 180 degress off. turned the module around, recalibrated the compass, fine ever since.

Just checked and it does come down the drivers side.

 

Make sure there is nothing magnetic in the dash holder. it will f up the compass

 

Exactly.... Kinda sucks but you can not put you phone or any other electronic devices up there or it will mess up the compass..

Do this and you can use it to hold your phone...

strange. you have it mounted right. nothing electrical in the tray. let us know what you find...

 

My wife put here cell phone on it and I never even gave that a thought as to what might have caused it. Now with what I hear, I need to go and perform the calibration again, and see if it works, and keep everything off the damn shelf. I am trying to think of what I can put on it now that I have it installed. Looks like another one of my useless items....Thanks for all your replies and help with this.

 

It's great for sunglasses and such. Some cellphones don't cause this problem. I don't know if it's 3G and Edge phones exculusivly that cause this.
