The speed sensor is working however the cadence is not. How can I fix the cadence part?

I had this issue with a new one, it turned out the magnetic part that goes on the crank arm wasn't a magnet at all.. .. so I used a small magnet I had and just stuck it to the end of the pedal bolt and it worked fine... (which was also a bonus, I didn't really have enough room for that whole rubber thing to fit between the crank and chainstay)

I've found that it can be very temperamental and if the sensor and pick-up are not close enough together or lined up properly then it will not give you a reading. But with occasional small adjustments mine works every time.

I have the same problem, and have tried the sensor in virtually every orientation and virtually touching the crank mounted magnet on each rotation. Nothing has worked so far. A customer service rep from Wahoo has suggested swapping out the battery (apparently they can cut out a single function if they are low), and or resetting the network settings on my iPhone. I have yet to try this...was just looking here to see what battery to get. Mine is brand new and the other functions, including the heart-rate monitor, all work just fine. Only the cadence is missing.

I've had this happen in the past. It's usually due to the magnet on the crank arm. Adjust it so that it is close enough. I find that if it's more than 1cm away from the magnet, it won't reliably pick up the signal.

Are you sure the GPS on your phone isnt picking up the speed for you? Maybe the whole thing isnt pairing? If you put it inside on a trainer, you could determine that. Or disable the GPS on your phone. I use the ROAD BIKE PRO app for iphone, and it will tell you if the sensor is working or not (Green check marks). If its not, you unpair it and repair it.

The sensor isn't reading the cartridge. Push your stop or reset button and hold it for 5 seconds.

if you use this model you will need to instal the sensor + the magnet, i would recomend you to use the new garmin sensor http://www.amazon.com/Garmin-010-12102-00-Bike-Cadence-Sensor/dp/B00JLMRXCQ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1404416677&sr=8-4&keywords=cadence+sensor+garmin cause it doesnt need the magnet (its a gyroscope)

I'm sorry. You can't it be best to get a digital speedometer and if you have have an cable style save it for an older project bicycle. .I suggest an old schwinn

There is something wrong with the units, I brought it to a bike store and they could never fix it. I am suppose to return it and send it with a prepaid paper that they sent me but I cant find it anymore, can u please send it back so iu can send it to you.

maybe put a fresh battery in the sensor clip. if you hold the magnet next to the sensor and move it with the device turned on you should see the wheel icons in the upper left moving. On my tires the magnet that clips to the spoke is about 1/16th of an inch away from the bottom of the sensor when it passes, has to be close.

Of course, cadence sensor works independtly of how many gears your bike have. Cadence sensor measures your legs rpm.

My bike had the exact issue. The part proform suggested was $500 and did not come with a guarantee that the issue would be fixed. The part cost more than the bike. Proform was horrible to deal with. They were insulting and unhelpful. I ended up spending a little over $500 for a new Nordic track. Love the new bike. Sorry to hear you are having the same issue. We took the bike apart and tightened the belt ... Checked everything online for answers ... Nothing worked.

We had the same problem. I think it was a sensor. We only had ours 2 weeks or so and returned it for a refund.

Aim directly at the sensor & make sure the connections are fully plugged in. You could also contact customer service- Worst case scenario, return it & get another one.

Very simple,just move the sensor to the back wheel.the heart monitor will work to.make sure the wheel size is the same.I have used sigma for a long time they are very good.do not like the strap on the heart monitor.they had to cut Connors some where this was it.

Todd, the cadence sensor will work with any drivetrain as it is not specific to any. There is simply a magnet that goes on the crank arm and a sensor on the chain stay of the bicycle to monitor the speed and revolutions. With the newer sensor style, there is an accelerometer based sensor that straps to the crank arm and functions in the same manner. Regardless, drivetrain style and model won't matter.

Very cool. Thanks. Im hoping its the temp sensor as I already replaced the element so far and thats the only thing left. Thanks again

It appears that it is compatible with the Speed/Cadence sensor. I found the information at https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/into-sports/discontinued/forerunner-50/prod10527.html please verify on there before you place any orders. Click on the "specs" tab and it'll state that it is compatible under the "features and benefits" section. Best of luck to you!

I had my mechanic diagnose which sensor was defective. Replaced it with the one from Amazon. Still not working. Mechanic checked the new sensor and it is defective. I'm stuck with a paperweight.

If you change the gears and speed sensor and it dont work still, you shoupd of checked fuse numbered 8.
