ABSTRACT:
The present invention incorporates a flux-gate sensor for a vehicle compass. The sensor is mounted in association with the mounting system for a rearview mirror mounted to the vehicle windshield. In one embodiment of the present invention, the flux-gate sensor is contained in the mounting bracket for the rearview mirror. This location isolates the sensor from the undesired effects of the metallic mass of the vehicle as well as the dashboard, typically housing the vehicle's wiring.
