Suunto race alti & baro
-
Hello, I hope you are well!!
So, since a few weeks ago my Suunto race goes crazy with altitude. It is adjusting good with fusealti (gps), but then it goes up and down even if I stay still. It does the same also if I adjust it manually. Not only a few meters, sometimes goes to + 100 or - 100m when is supposed to be 3m .
I tried the soft reset and also the hard reset and still the same problem. Anyone experienced similar issue? Or any recommendation on how to fix it?
Thank youu!! And happy trails

@Silviu-Adrian-Moise sounds like a defective Sensor! I would prefer to open a suunto Service ticket for repair in guarantie!

@Silviu-Adrian-Moise try water with a bit of soap for a couple of hours…
It solved by baro problems (but mine was stuck in the same altitude…) -
@claudiotereso thank you for the reply. I tried it but still the same problem

@GiPFELKiND thanks for the reply!! Yes, I am in contact with them to see what’s wrong. But I can’t send it right now, I am in the middle of big training block…

@Silviu-Adrian-Moise
Did you try a fridge test?

It may give some more proofs for a faulty sensor (once sure you have well cleaned the sensor with warm water, etc…) -
My Race works the same way. I honestly think the altitude was temperature sensitive, and there is even mention of this in some of the manuals for some Suunto plus apps. I don’t pay much attention to it though use it though as I live in a very flat place, I only care about barometric pressure and that does not vary.
