Timex HRM issues :(

GooBeGone

hiya!

been havin issues w/my timex hrm & wonder if any1 else has had the same issue.

problem:
it continually reads 240 beats per minute for my heart rate

things done so far 2 fix:
new battery in both chest strap & watch (nuttin changed but at least i know it's not the battery), tried usin water to "wet" the strap up (which worked 4 a while but doesn't anymore). turned off the HR part & turned it back on.

none of that worked..

the weird thing is:
it calculates the amount of calories burned correctly. but it doesn't show me the correct HR when i'm workin out. at this point i've turned off the HR notification on it (it tells me when i'm too high or low on my HR while workin out) b/c it constantly says too high.

any suggestions?
