Cluster compass coding
Is it possible to code the cluster to display the compass all the time while scrolling through the BC functions below the speedometer. I have mpg displayed in my BC but still want the compass in the middle.

I never understood who thought those things needed to be tied together when they designed them. Seems like a compass on/off that is separate from all the other BC stuff would the right thing.
Engineer: "Well why on EARTH would anyone want to see a compass AND their MPG at the same time! Ridiculous! Turn that off!" I never got it - I like the compass on as well.

I’d like that too…it’s been discussed and checked in e-sys to no avail. I broke down instead and installed an F33 mirror (P/N 51166992179) in my F15 so the compass is always on in the mirror. I missed that anyway as it’s a simple, available reference and I don’t need to muck with the stalk to get it to display when I need it. The replacement mirror (from a wreck, eBay) works great and functions correctly but the car does show an error code with ISTA recognizing that the ‘wrong mirror has been installed’ - I think it’s actually the right one
