Mirror, mirror, on the wall.... *(in the rear-view mirror). Try rotating the mirror upside down and see if east and west are reversed.... Calibration works, just keep trying. It took me a few trials.
The compass module on my 2007 EL XLT is part of the rear view mirror. With the mirror unplugged, I too get - - for the direction. I realized this when the button on the glass became unglued. I removed the mirror temporarily.
Tried turning it upside down to no avail, it rarely shows a direction except North (even when not going North) mostly it shows the two dash marks.
I'm wondering if the compass module went bad?
The wiring I can see looks good.
I think I will have to explore that avenue next, I found a couple online $50 and up, will check prices at my local Bobs first I think.
Its not that big of a deal, I know my directions fine, I just like things to work.
