You may have blown a fuse under the dash. I must express that if you don't know how to fix or have knowledge to do these things, find someone who does.
If your vehicle came with a basic manual, read the section on electrical system. It will tell you the location of your fuse box and it will tell you how to reset the compass and temp.
My Chevy came with this and it is the best part of the truck.

My jeep compass is eating up insides of tires in just a few months what would cause be top of rear tires look like there slanting in

I looked at info on 07 jeep compass, part of rear suspension. You can see those arms and bushings. If your going to check it yourself, I'd safely raise and support the vehicle, check out those arms for movement. Working under a vehicle there are safety issues, safety is your responsibility. You could take the vehicle to alignment shop, let them fix it.

You will need to replace the mirror, they are not repaired and this one is most likely defective. I would have the dealer confrim this is the case as the new part is about $400.00

TEPERATURE AND COMPASS INSIDE CAB STOPPED WORKING.

If the lights in the console are functional then it is most likely not fuse related. These consoles are notorious for going bad. You can get a new one at the dealership for $250 (!!!), grab one from a wrecker, or I offer a repair solution. Check out www.autoclockrepair.com I have removal instructions and info there. Please let me know if I can be of further help, thanks!

Temp and compass stopped working

The overhead console is quite prone to internal failure. Dim, intermittent, or dead displays are a common symptom of an internal failure. We offer a reasonable repair service with a lifetime guarantee. Check it out: www.autoclockrepair.com

The compass and outside temp on my 2006 Toyota Tacoma quit working. Is there a fuse for this unit and where would I find it?

Are your cruise control, dome, and tail lights also out? If so then it is a fuse. If not then the control unit has gone bad internally. You may be able to get it fixed under your warranty.
If it is not covered by your warranty, check out
www.autoclockrepair.com. We offer a very reasonable repair solution.

Compass back light not working

This problem is very common on this vehicles, I have a few that have the same problem, but to solve this, you need to remove the center gauges pod (very easy) remove all screws holding the compass unit (only) loosen up the wireing to have some slack when pulling the unit out, (do not remove the compass unit all the way out, just enought so you can check the back, with the help of a flat screw driver, remove the bulb from the unit, this bulb is deep inside and does not look like a light bulb, but is the only deep hole in the back of the unit, slight counterclock turn, remove light bulb with a dealer replacement (dealer only), unless someone has one, hope this helps.

Can't get the outside temp. showing in the inside backview mirror

Check the connector that plugs into the back of the mirror and make sure it is pushed in all the way. If that is not it, look carefully at the wires going into the connector. I had one that broke off. I had to pull the pin out of the connector and re crimp it onto the wire.
