gradient feature stopped working-Edge 500
I was riding today and looked down to check the grade on a hill I was climbing and it was on 0% on an obvious 4% or so grade. The grade feature didn't work for the remainder of the ride, yet it recorded the total ascent. I know the grade was working early during the ride, because I checked it on another hill. Any ideas? I have always updated the unit each time it says an update is available.

Might be a bit of water in it messing with the sensor, happens to mine now and then.

My 705 does that on rare occasions.
AFAIK, only a powercycle will make the display return.

Apparently it was just a fluke thing. because it has worked every time since.
