Defective Magnetometer?

Hello DIY Drones community -- I am reposting this in this section in hopes of getting a response as I am pulling my hair out.  I am currently putting my first ArduPilot Mega board together and have all of the soldering done and the firmware loaded.  When I go through a few of the tests I noticed that the compass test is returning all zeros, even when moving the board around.  I desoldered the board from the pin header to check everything out and noticed that 2 pins on one of the ICs are crossed with solder.  Every function is working EXCEPT for the compass.  Would someone be able to tell me if this is normal?

  • Hi Mike,

    That solder jumper in the image is correct. I believe you emailed tech support?
