I have a Dodge RAM 1500 which has an overhead console which does not have the electronic COMPASS, TEMP, etc.

Now I have the electronics that goes in the console. Just that part, it was working perfectly before the truck it was in, was wrecked.

It has 7 wires you can see the colors in the picture.

Is there any function of this electronic console that I can use, for instance, the compass. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.-

I believe to use that Digital Display you will need the Factory Harness, Computer & Sensor......
Good luck............
Probably better if you purchased a Temp / Compass Mirror

Thank so much for your response, I'm icluding some more pictures as it seems to have some other circuit board.

Anyways, where could I get these Mirror TEMP/Compass Mirrors?

I was really looking for an answer that didn't lead me on to buying a $195.00 mirror as you offer. If I was trying to sell mirrors of course I would recomend someone with a question like mine to BUY A NEW ONE.

Honestly now, that wasn't the idea, was it?

Sorry, I thought this was mostly a forum to ask or respond-help technical issues. I guess it felt as been run over by sales offers with just one issue through Private Messages and the forum answers.

Maybe next time I'll see if you have a spot on EBAY and look there first. My mistake to think I could ask a silly question like I did on this forum.

Thank anyways mo12v for your sales offer.
