Chevrolet Silverado: Controls / Compass & Clock
The vehicle may have a compass display on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
The compass receives its heading and other information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and vehicle speed information.
The compass system is designed to operate for a certain number of miles or degrees
of turn before needing a signal from the GPS satellites. When the compass display
shows CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in an open area where it can receive
a GPS signal. The compass system will automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.
