Land Cruiser 200 - Compass calibration/Kompass Justierung

[munkhuu]

Hi All,

Please can somebody help me by my Problem: since some days my Compass is showing wrong directions, can i calibrate it manually?
I searched everywhere in Internet and found nothing, also there isn't any words about the compass calibration in the operating instructions/owner's manuals. Thanks in advance

Normally to calibrate a compass you need to drive around in a carpark in a large figure of 8. IIRC, mine had a calibration mode you had to enter beforehand by pressing a button next to the compass.

Hi
If it is only some days I would be thinking about where you are driving or what you are carrying in the vehicle at the time. If you are driving near power transformers or mobile phone towers etc or carrying steel in the truck then all those would effect the compass. Not sure where the actual compass is installed in the 200 series.

Regards
Mark
