AnswerMy compass lost orientation on vacation and I thought it was a dealer fix only thing. Real pain not knowing my south from north!

The procedures for re-calibrating the compass is detailed & illustrated in the Owners Manual.

See "Related Questions" below for convenient links to free Owners Manual downloads - very handy to have an electronic version.

Your owner's manual has a calibration procedure for the compass. If you don't have your manual then go to www.vehiclerepair.org/windstar/ and you can download a manual for free.
