Can anyone please help - I recently bought a Pajero and now need your expert advice. I have some sort of component fitted on the dashboard in the middle of car at bottom of windscreen and I don't know what it is and before I start trying to pull my Pajero apart to trace what it is, can anyone suggest what it might be? It's a small square unit approx 2 to 3 " and about 1/2" deep.

Thanks in advance to all you experts.

Hi there it is the sensor for the compass, when i first got mine i put the gps reciever on top of it and couldnt understand why the compass wasnt working, eventually realised the gps was interfering with the reciever for the compass, so make sure you dont put your gps near it.

Cheers Glyn

The box you are describing this is normally behind the binnacle is the sensor for the compass Smile

Hi there - if it has an arrowhead on it pointing forward then it's definately the sensor for the compass
