Would my compass still work?

Imagine a world with a very wacky magnetic field, the magnetic poles are not aligned at the top of the axial tilt and the sun is active enough to cause huge northern lights each night.

I know electronic systems would fail but would a compass still point at the magnetic pole or would it be rendered useless by the major solar activity?
