Here's how to troubleshoot the Compass Data Error:
Check the fuses: The compass module is powered by fuse 28 (10 amp) or fuse 12 (7.5 amp) in the interior fuse box. Check if these fuses are blown or loose. Replace any blown fuses with new ones of the same rating.
Disconnect the battery: Disconnecting the battery will reset the compass module and may clear the error. Disconnect the battery's negative terminal, wait for 30 seconds, and then reconnect it.
Perform the compass relearn procedure: If the error persists, you can try performing the compass relearn procedure. This procedure recalibrates the compass module by driving the car in a specific pattern.
Check the auto-dimming mirror: If your Milan has an auto-dimming mirror, the compass sensor may be integrated into the mirror. Disconnect the mirror connector (located behind the mirror housing) and see if the error disappears. If it does, the problem may be with the mirror itself.
Seek professional help: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's best to consult a qualified mechanic or dealership. They can diagnose the problem and determine if the compass module, auto-dimming mirror, or instrument cluster needs replacement.
