Default Overhead compass.

Well I've resoldered the compass on my truck 2 times. I think I've burnt the board and need a new one I'm done with trying to fix it. ( this time I had to solder in the truck which was really fun having my brother hold the console

Get a donor from the junkyard, Craigslist, or Ebay. Plenty of Expedition donors out there. Should last another 2 resolders. Just don't use an iron greater than 25 watts.

I don't ever use mine, it is off. Heck, I don't even know for sure if it even works.

My outside temp gauge is in the HVAC so I don't have a use for it.
