So far I’ve gone through 1x Fenix 7S solar and 2x Fenix 7 solars in the last 3months, all with similar issues. Total Ascent seems to over-read by anything between 15 and 20%. This when compared to Edge 520 and Forerunner 735XT units which both show almost identical TA readings on the same route on the same day. bmitchell09 over 6 years ago. I'm having an issue with my altimeter on my 5x. It goes up and down while sitting on the table next to me-currently a high of 3067 and a low of -467 over the last hour. I live at 1000 ft asl. Prior to that, I didn't notice any issue and the graph shows it steady until it moved up 2000ft in a short time and then I've installed another one, did an GPS altimeter calibration again, it worked fine even after a restart, but only for a couple of hours.

IMPORTANT: Do not put any objects into the sensor port! Shake away excess water and allow to air dry Calibrate the altimeter. step 2: I do have one last test I would I then did a classic test where you manually calibrate the altimeter to a value off the actual one, start an activity and hopefully auto calibration will adjust the altimeter. Coros worked well. Fenix 7 after 3:30 hours of the watch sitting in the window, with the GPS altimeter showing the correct altitude, never adjusted the barometric altimeter. Fenix 7S: 42 x 42 x 14.1 mm. Fenix 7X: 51 x 51 x 14.9 mm. The Garmin Fenix 7 was announced in early 2022 with tons of improvements over the previous Fenix 6 generation.
