On the indecator panel where it tell the direction and outside temp it gives the direction and under it it says OC. I tried recalibrating it by holding the button in and driving in circles it resets the direction but the OC is still there.

Driving in circles won't recalibrate the compass. "OC" means "open circuit". Check if the outside temperature sensor is unplugged. Sensors don't fail very often but there could be a cut wire too.
