Garmin Edgar 530 FTP test stopped stage 3

I run FTP test with my Garmin Edge 530, garmin HR band and wahoo Kickr. 
I started with warm up, goes to step 1, step 2 and finishing step 3, test stopped, it went to normal screen and resistant % goes to 0%. It calculated 199 watts as FTP, but I didn’t allow up to go to final stages to end complete test.

any help?
thanks,

    same here...did you happen to have an estimated FTP in prior to the test? I noticed that i had input an FTP number that was way too high (vaguely remember doing this when i had no idea what it actually was). My thought was that garmin's algorithm must've have incorporated that number and it just completely threw the test off base.

  • Hi! Yes I had an estimated FTP. That I don’t think was out of range. 
    What I did was to do zwift test and let garmin Auto calculate FTP, but not doing test with my 530. But it’s strange it cannot be made with it. Thanks
