Hari,
Some more information would be helpful. For example:
- which magnetometer you're using (sparkfun or diy drones)?
- how have you connected the mag? directly to the oilpan or via a cable?
- if you're using the sparkfun mag I hope you're using a level converter (as suggested on the wiki).
- if you're using a cable have you correctly plugged it into the "no gps" port?
- have you checked that all the soldering is ok?
- have you crashed recently?
Anyway, as mentioned on another thread, you're not getting values back from the mag so it's likely a wiring problem or a fried mag.
