hi

Just wondering has anyone else had this problem my candence senosr reads double most of time, instead of reading 90rpm it will show 180rpm, im using a VDO C2 DS, sometimes i change the battery and it will be fine for a while then bang back to reading double, but sometimes i can put the old battery back in and it will read fine, the distance between the sensor and pick up is perfect

Not got a motor hidden in your frame have you levitronix - the magnets in them could play havoc with the sensors:D

On a more serious note, have you tried moving the sensor slightly further away (or even tried removing the magnet altogether just to check the sensor is not picking something else up)?
