No active calories recorded during Indoor cycling!

Since about a week ago (probably since 20.22 was installed), I get 0 active calories recorded on my Indoor cycling activity!

Other activities, like Strength, works like before.

Anyone else?

Yes, I have the file, will check it. You can edit the post and delete the file, now, if you do not want to let it here for privacy reasons

From what I see in the activity data, the watch was connected to two sensors - the Garmin Speed Sensor 2, and some unspecified Wahoo sensor. I suspect that it is the Wahoo sensor that injects the 0 W power…

Thanks for the deep dive into the data! I belive you're absolutely right! I could not see the second sensor (Wahoo) in my activity but for some reason it added itself(?) and overruled the power data..…

Check whether the powermeter is connected - the power shows just 1W max. On some models with a recent firmware update, there was an issue with sensors not connecting automatically. I am not sure though whether it concerns Epix 2 with v20.22, too.

If not connected automatically, you have to go to the main menu » Sensors & Accessories, and connect the sensor manually

Thanks for the quick response! I don't have a power meter. The reason it says 1W is because Connect did not let me save it with a blank field for Watt after I tried to edit the activity, so I put a 1 into the Watt field...

Just using a Garmin Speed sensor 2 for my Indoor cycling.

Did you enter the activity manually? Or did the Calories disappear after the edit? Could you post a link to the activity?

The Indoor cycling activity synced from the watch with all the measurements and with the resting calories of 49 as well. The editing part was not a logical thing to do I was just messing around to see if I could trigger anything...

Didn't found a way to link to the activity, but I did found a way to Export it into zip. (Ok?)

Could you post a screenshot of the page https://connect.garmin.com/modern/heart-rate/2025-03-27/0 (yesterday's heart rate). Especially the 7-day Avg Resting HR is of interest. And then please also tell what is your Max HR in User Settings.

From what I see in the activity data, the watch was connected to two sensors - the Garmin Speed Sensor 2, and some unspecified Wahoo sensor. I suspect that it is the Wahoo sensor that injects the 0 W power into the activity. And, of course, zero watts of power result in zero active Calories.

If you do not need the Wahoo sensor for something, I recommend disconnecting it.

PS: The HR screenshot is no more necessary, I am rather confident the Wahoo sensor is the culprit

Thanks for the deep dive into the data! I belive you're absolutely right! I could not see the second sensor (Wahoo) in my activity but for some reason it added itself(?) and overruled the power data...? Anyhow, I tried again yesterday and activly removed the Wahoo sensor and, voila! The active calories are back!

Again, thanks for your effort! Any kind gesture these days are precious! <3
