Compass Has Gone Wonky

I just noticed the compass on my heads-up is completely wrong. It does not seem to be 'stuck'. The direction changes as I turn but it is very wrong. Where is the sensor for the compass located?

There used to be a procedure in the owners manual where you go to an open parking lot and get it in learning mode then take a bunch of lefts and rights to fix it.

Yeah, just take the car to a parking lot and do a dozen or so figure 8's.

I use the wind for navigation, just lick my finger and stick it out the window, none of those fancy compases, funny enough the wind seems to always be blowing from the front to back.
