The compass probably needs to be recalibrated. Here is the link to the info you need...

Doesn't work how? i.e. Is it lit up but not moving? Or does it not light up at all?

What direction is it showing? Does it always show the same direction?

Recalibrate it by driving in small circles...more info in manual. I had to do that a couple times.
