Brand New APM 2.5 Magnetometer/Compass Fails

i tried for 6 hours trying to figure out what is going on. i wanted to use this APM 2.5 for hardware in the loop simulation but i think the compass is short. there is no physical damage or any visible damage on the board that i would see... i just pulled it out of the 2 days ago i have Arduplane 2.70 loaded on it and i tried using terminal and here is what i get. Can someone please help

*NOTE* CLI Works only on first connect of power, log download only over USB

IMPORTANT: if you have not previously set this system up, use the
'reset' command to initialize the EEPROM to sensible default values
and then the 'radio' command to configure for your radio.
