Can't pair heart rate monitor!

Hi all,

Hope you can help me out. I have the Forerunner 50, the foot pad has paired fine, but the heart rate monitor just won't get picked up by the watch.

I've followed the instructions, but at a loss as to what I'm doing wrong. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Andy
  • Could be flat battery on the HR monitor. Some people have had success by inserting the battery in the wrong polarity for a few seconds and then putting it in the right way and re-pairing. I assume you are wearing the strap ?

    Thanks.

    The unit is brand new, but I'll try that. Have been wearing it yes. :(

    Ok, found the problem - dead battery. Didn't think to check that first, because it was brand new!
