Barometric sensor's problems

Has anyone had problems with the barometric sensor of the fenix 5x? As it is no longer under warranty, is it possible that it will be replaced? I have continuous errors on the elevation detection.

For example: this is my last running session: the start and finish are in the same place ! the real delta should be about 20m .

Thanks

Looks to be HW issue. After warranty probably you need to pay for repair. Check with customer support.

Yes, I think so..

ciao , had same problem on fenix5. Calibrated several times but nothing (gps + galileo); even barometer, nothing. all with version 15.40. Now restored to factory settings and updated to 19.10. I'm still finishing updates, hopefully good

Factory reset is the last chance, however with the behavior described above I am skeptic, but agree that definitely worth to try at least.

unfortunately the rest and update to 19.10 did not allow the correct functioning of the altimeter and barometer

Unfortunately, I agreed with Doktorko, it seems a hardware issue.

I guess that to solve the problem it will take a lot of money and patience for a long wait
