I received my new belt and could only test it today.
My suunto sensor was little hard to be plugged, and i can’t unplug it now .
Any tip? I don’t want to use any tool, and I may call suunto support before any hard attempt to unplug it.
Thanks, and sorry to hijack this post

WD40!

@Mff73 I had that same experience with my new belt. I returned the belt (with the sensor attached to it) to the shop. They had to send it for repair because they also couldn’t remove it without damaging the belt.

[zhang965]

The new belt is still made in china ?

[surfboomerang]

@zhang965 yes.

Thanks.
The same feeling for me : too hard to remove it without damage.
I will contact Suunto. Bad luck.

I am still using an old belt as it is working, the new belt has not been opened. But, I leave my sensor on the belt all the time except when I put the belt in the washing machine. Why do you need to remove the sensor? If the new belt works better I will just stick to hand washing and probably never drop it in the washing machine. I leave the sensor attached when I hand wash the belt.

Keep me posted here . I hear ya

@Brad_Olwin
I used to remove it for some battery saving and cleaning (i rince belt and sensor separately).
Maybe it is useless, maybe not.
But at least, if i need to change battery, i will have to separate them , and I prefer to contact support now the belt is brand new, than in weeks or months

Too late, they have been plugged without. I should have lubed before celebrating the union

[surfboomerang]

@Brad_Olwin to change the battery of the sensor…

[Brad_Olwin]

@surfboomerang Agreed, I do that maybe once a year. Sounds like this could be a problem. I am happy that you testers out there found out about this one before mine were irreversibly coupled.

[surfboomerang]

@Brad_Olwin The way I found out was because the belt I ordered wasn’t working. I applied contact gel, but still no result. So I wanted to change the battery first before returning the belt and that is where the fun started.

I don’t know if there is a faulty batch, because the second one I received recently (after the world-wide belt shortage) works fine.
