So, I have been a very happy 530 owner for the past several months. I use the Garmin chest strap with it for my HR.. and so far this has worked very well. No issues.
However, lately.. when I power on the unit and get ready to clip in.. I notice that my HR is not showing.. it often takes a round of power cycles, or going into settings and "enabling / disable" the HR sensor for it to come back online. Or, I will need to manually click on "connect". This am, I did all of this.. and finally got it working.. and started to cycle. I kept getting drop outs until my HR was around 100bpm.. and then it seemed to work just fine.
After each ride, I be sure to wash the strap.. I have it snug. All the FW is updated. Thoughts?
