Altitude correction and course

Hello, My barometric altimeter is broken on my watch. That's common on Garmin watch but it is not the topic here. I rode bicycle 2 days ago. My watch registered 15404 m of positiv elevation. So i used altitude (elevation) correction on Garmin Connect website and I got 1423 m of positiv elevation. Ok, it looks better. Then i saved this course and Connect showed me 1944 m of positiv elevation !!! What's wrong Garmin ?
