Default Compass question

Anybody installed one of HDs compass on their Touring bike?
&nbsp\\;
I just finished and after following all instructions and checking and double checking connections I can't get this thing to work..8[
The kit says '98 and up touring bikes and everything seemed to fit and hook-up as supposed to but the compass won't spin or work at all.
Anyone knows if they come "safety locked" from factory? Anything I might be missing?
&nbsp\\;
Thanks!

&nbsp\\;You have any Pics of it installed? I saw one on Ebay and thought about it for the Bike. How hard was it to install? I will be changing out My Gauges with the Aluminum Face Gauges and want to do everything at one time.

That's only slightly less useless than the ambient air temp gauge it replaced.
