How do you calibrate a compass on a Pontiac Bonneville 2001?
HI, You usually have to pick your Zont in time and then hit the calibrate button.......Then you drive slowly in a very small circle till it calibrates. This doesnt work for me for some reason so I set the compass manually. Find North where you are. Point the car to North Keep pushing the Zone button till the North needle points to North. When you have the needle at North you are done!! Works great, fast to setup, easily changed when you go on a long trip.........Drive Safe
