GENERAL INFORMATION
An overhead console featuring an electronic com-
pass and thermometer is an available option for XJ
(Cherokee) models. Following are general descrip-
tions of major components used in the overhead con-
sole. Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for
complete circuit descriptions and diagrams.
displayed temperature reading stays in memory.
When the ignition switch is turned ON again, the
thermometer will display the memory temperature
for one minute; then update the display to the cur-
rent average temperature reading within five min-
utes.
COMPASS
The compass will display the direction in which the
vehicle is pointed using the eight major compass
headings (Examples: north is N, northeast is NE). It
does not display the headings in actual degrees. The
display is turned on or off using the COMP/TEMP
button to the left of the display.
The self-calibrating compass unit requires no ad-
justing in normal use. The only calibration that may
prove necessary is to drive the vehicle in 3 complete
circles, on level ground, in not less than 48 seconds.
This will reorient the unit to its vehicle.
The unit also will compensate for magnetism the
body of the vehicle may acquire during normal use.
However, avoid placing anything magnetic directly on
the roof of the vehicle. Magnetic mounts for an an-
tenna, a repair order hat or a funeral procession flag
can exceed the compensating ability of the compass
unit if placed on the roof panel. Magnetic bit drivers
used on the fasteners that hold the assembly to the
roof header can also affect compass operation.
If the vehicle roof should become magnetized, the
demagnetizing and calibration procedures may be re-
quired to restore proper operation.
READING AND COURTESY LAMPS
All reading and courtesy lamps in the overhead
console are activated by the door jamb switches.
When all doors and the liftgate are closed, the lamps
can be individually activated by depressing the corre-
sponding lens. When a door and/or the liftgate is
open, depressing the lamp lens switches will not turn
the lamps off. Refer to Group 8L - Lamps, for diag-
nosis and service of these lamps.
KEYLESS ENTRY RECEIVER
The overhead console houses the keyless entry re-
ceiver. Refer to Group 8P - Power Locks, for diagno-
sis and service of this component.
REMOTE GARAGE DOOR OPENER STORAGE
A compartment in the overhead console is designed
to hold most remote garage door opener transmitters.
The transmitter is mounted within the compartment
with an adhesive-backed hook and loop fastener
patch. Then one to three pegs are selected and
mounted on a post on the inside of the storage com-
partment door. The pegs may be stacked, if neces-
sary. The peg(s) selected must be long enough to
activate the button of the transmitter each time the
storage compartment door is depressed.
THERMOMETER
The thermometer displays the outside ambient
temperature. The temperature displayed can be
changed from Fahrenheit to Celsius using the US/
METRIC button. The displayed temperature is not
an instant reading of conditions, but an average tem-
perature. It may take the unit several minutes to re-
act to a major temperature change such as driving
out of a heated garage into winter temperatures.
When the ignition switch is turned OFF, the last
SUNGLASSES STORAGE
A flocked storage compartment for sunglasses is in-
cluded in the overhead console. This compartment
features a push/push-type latch and a viscous damp-
ening system for a fluid opening motion.

DIAGNOSIS
J
COMPASS/DISPLAY SELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST
This self-diagnostic test is used to determine that
the compass and all of its display segments are oper-
ating properly electrically. Initiate the self-diagnostic
test as follows:
(1) With the ignition switch in the OFF position,
simultaneously press and hold the COMP/TEMP but-
ton and the US/METRIC button.
(2) Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Continue to hold both buttons until the display
performs a walking segment test. In this test all of
the compass points are displayed, along with various
number combinations. These combinations verify that
all display segments are functional. If any segment
should fail to light during the test, the unit is faulty
and requires replacement. To repeat the test, momen-
tarily depress and release the COMP/TEMP button
one time.
(4) Momentarily depress and release the US/MET-
RIC button one time and all segments will light si-
multaneously for about 2 seconds. If any segment
should fail to light during the test, the unit is faulty
and requires replacement. To repeat the test, momen-
tarily depress and release the COMP/TEMP button
one time.
(5) Momentarily depress and release the US/MET-
RIC button one time or turn the ignition switch to
OFF to exit the self-diagnostic mode and return to
normal operation.
If the compass functions, but accuracy is sus-
pect, it may be necessary to perform a variation
adjustment. This procedure allows the unit to
accommodate variations in the earth’s mag-
netic field strength based on geographic loca-
tion. See Compass Variation Adjustment, in this
group.
If the compass display has blanked out and
only CAL appears, demagnetizing may be nec-
essary to remove excessive residual magnetic
fields from the vehicle. See Compass Demagne-
tizing, in this group.
Fig. 1 Temperature Sensor
To diagnose the temperature sensor, perform the
following procedures. If the sensor and circuit are
OK, then the electronic module is faulty and should
be replaced.
THERMOMETER DIAGNOSIS
The thermometer function is supported by a tem-
perature sensor, a wiring circuit and a portion of the
overhead console display. The sensor is mounted at
the center of the vehicle below the grille, behind the
front bumper (Fig. 1).
If any portion of the circuit fails, it will self-diag-
nose as an open or short circuit. The system will dis-
play SC (short circuit) when the sensor is exposed to
temperatures in excess of 55°C (131°F) or if the cir-
cuit is shorted. If the temperature is below -40°C
(-40°F) or an open circuit exists, the system will dis-
play OC (open circuit).
SENSOR TEST
(1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Unplug sensor
connector.
(2) Measure resistance of sensor. At -40°F the re-
sistance is 336K ohms. At 140°F the resistance is
2.488K ohms. Sensor resistance should read between
these two values. If OK, go to Sensor Circuit Test. If
not OK, replace the sensor.
SENSOR CIRCUIT TEST
(1) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Unplug sensor
connector.
(2) Short the pins on the body half of connector us-
ing a jumper wire.
(3) Remove the overhead console as described in
Service Procedures.
(4) Check continuity between cavities 10 and 11 of
overhead console harness connector (Fig. 2). There
should be continuity. If OK, go to next step. If not
OK, repair open circuit as required.

(5) Remove jumper wire from temperature sensor
harness connector. Check continuity between cavities
10 and 11 of overhead console harness connector and
a good ground (Fig. 2). There should be no continuity.
If OK, replace electronic module. If not OK, repair
short circuit as required.

SERVICE PROCEDURES
COMPASS VARIATION ADJUSTMENT
Variance is the difference between magnetic north
and geographic north. In some areas, the difference
between magnetic and geographic north is great
enough to cause the compass to give false readings. If
this occurs, the variance must be set.
To set the variance:
(1) Using the map in Fig. 3, find your geographic
location and note the zone number.

ity of the compass. DO NOT use magnetic tools
when servicing the overhead console.
The compass features a self-calibrating design,
which simplifies the calibration procedure. This fea-
ture automatically updates the compass calibration
while the vehicle is being driven. This takes into ac-
count small changes in residual magnetism the vehi-
cle may acquire during normal use. Do not attempt
to calibrate the compass near large metal objects
such as other vehicles, large buildings or bridges.
Whenever the compass is calibrated manually,
the variation number must also be reset. See
Variation Adjustment Procedure, in this group.
Calibrate the compass manually as follows:
(1) Start the engine.
(2) Depress both the US/METRIC and COMP/
TEMP buttons. Hold down until CAL is displayed.
This takes about 10 seconds and appears about 5 sec-
onds after VAR is displayed.
(3) Release both buttons.
(4) Drive vehicle on a level surface that is away
from large metal objects through 3 or more complete
circles in not less than 48 seconds. The CAL message
will disappear to indicate that the compass is now
calibrated.
If CAL message remains in display, either
there is excessive magnetism near the compass
or the unit is faulty. Repeat the demagnetizing
and calibration procedures at least one more
time.
If the wrong direction is still indicated, the
area selected may be too close to a strong mag-
netic field. Repeat the calibration procedure in
another location.
Fig. 3 Variance Settings
(2) Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
(3) Depress both the US/METRIC and COMP/
TEMP buttons. Hold down until VAR is displayed.
This takes about 5 seconds.
(4) Release both buttons.
(5) Press the US/METRIC button to step through
the numbers until the zone number for your area ap-
pears in the display.
(6) Press the COMP/TEMP button to enter this
zone number into compass unit memory.
(7) Confirm correct directions are indicated.
COMPASS DEMAGNETIZING
The tool used to degauss or demagnetize the for-
ward console attaching screw and roof panel is the
Miller Tool 6029. Equivalent units must be rated as
continuous duty for 110/115 volts and 60Hz. They
must also have a field strength of over 350 gauss at
1/4-inch beyond the tip of the probe.
The degaussing tool is used to demagnetize both
the roof panel and the console forward mounting
screw, as follows:
(1) Be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF posi-
tion before you begin the demagnetizing procedure.
(2) Plug in the degaussing tool, while keeping the
tool at least 2 feet away from the compass unit.
(3) Slowly approach the head of the forward
mounting screw with the plastic coated tip of the de-
gaussing tool. Contact the head of the screw for
about 2 seconds.

CAUTION: DO NOT place any external magnets
such as magnetic roof mount antennas, in the vicin-
