Another compass note: They are often mounted on bulkheads. When installing or troubleshooting have a good look on the back side of the mounting place for wires that can easily throw off the compass when energised by any device.

If you have any iron/steel items near it, it will mess up your autopilot activity. I also found that my vhf interferes with the autopilot. Try turning off your VHF when troubleshooting it.
