After I installed some of gregburch's mods, BaseSnyc MFD for some reason now looks like this:

Yes, it doesn't seem like much, but look: BaseSnyc MFD says I'm right over CSSC, but map MFD says that I'm far east of it. None of the mods I installed had any modules, just a bunch of spacecraft3 things. So why is this refusing to work all the sudden? Is there a problem with one of gregburch's mods which makes it not work properly? And I did re-download and reinstall BaseSync MFD. And I tried it again, and I got different, but still incorrect results:

I did notice that only the illustrations provided by BaseSync MFD seem to not be working, as the Dst on both of them show. I just think it's annoying and wondering if there's a fix or a mod that I should uninstall.

BaseSync says you are 4.963M from CSSC which agrees with what Map MFD is telling you.

Also, try pressing the E/D button to switch to Direct.

Okay, sorry. But I mean that the illustration is far off, not the text data. Such as look at the second image, the illustration says I'm on the other side of the planet relative to CSSC, when map MFD says I'm right above it.

Where? It says that you've just passed it. the green dot is the base, the green line is your orbit. It looks correct to me.

Ah, I misunderstood. Sorry. Now I see what you're talking about. I don't know what your issue is though.

Actually, once you pass the base, the yellow indicator will suddenly "jump" to the other side of the planet. Watch this short video:

 
*Sigh* I mean that it is always like that, for example: When I pass over where MapSync MFD tells me CSSC is, the illustration doesn't change where CSSC is. And I really think this is a MapSync MFD problem, as I just tried it again, and it said that CSSC was at 0 latitude 0 longitude (In the gulf of Guinea). I know that because when MapSync MFD's illustration says I was over CSSC (When the green and yellow line coming from the center of the circle were in pretty much the same place), map MFD says I was over 0 latitude 0 longitude.
 
You're new, but :facepalm: for *Sigh* at forum members who are trying to help you through your own misunderstandings and general newbishness.

I'm fairly sure the yellow line is telling you where the base will be in the future at the moment of closest approach, which is the data highlighted in white text.

In your first picture, you are about 5000 km east of you base. Your closest pass will be in two full orbits, or about 3 hours from now. At that time, the earth will have rotated and your base will be about where you are right now.

In your second picture, you are right over your base, but your closest pass will be in 8 orbits, or 12 hours from now. Hence, the diagram is showing the position of the base in 12 hours which will be about 180 degrees from where it is now. See?

In other words, the frame of reference being used is not Earth's rotational frame.

I do recall something about a 0 lat 0 long reset bug in BaseSync MFD but it is completely unrelated to the diagram which works fine. If you are unsure just try re-targeting your base. It should work fine.
