If you're getting a notification to check the compass module on your 2005 Ford Expedition, it means that the connection for the compass may be loose or damaged, or it may just need to be calibrated due to a potential alignment issue caused by something hitting it. To calibrate the compass, locate an open area without large metal objects, turn on the ignition, navigate to the vehicle information menu, and press the set/reset button on the Press To Calibrate Compass screen. Drive at 5 mph in circles to complete the calibration, and a message will confirm when it's done.
Problems with the compass feature on the expedition can be identified by inspecting the module located within the rearview mirror.
