My Sister in Law gave me a Garmin HR watch and monitor (which she said she got 6 months ago). I can't get the watch to recognize the HR monitor (the little heart just blinks and disappears). I just bought a new battery for the HR band, but still same thing, any ideas?

  • I have a Garmin 310 Forerunner which has a heart monitor. One thing you can try is add a little water to your skin where the monitor hugs against you. Make sure the HR monitor is seated against you correctly as well. Thats all i can think of. usually mine works right away.
