New cyclometer question

So I have tried every idea given on my CicloSport HM414 to get it working again (only the non-measurement stuff works, just clock and temp.) Is it possible the wheel magnet became demagnatised? Has this happened to anyone?

Make sure it is close enough to the sensor. Also check the batteries. Sometimes a weak battery will run the clock, but nothing else.

replaced the battery in the sensor and now it works. Did it on a whim, since I called the US distributor and the guy I talked to was clueless, doesn’t even ride. All they do is import and sell bike stuff!
