Scale worked fine for years. Now it’s giving readings 8-12 lbs heavier. And they’re all over the place. I simply changed to a new router. Setup using iPhone went without issue. Then boom.  Have another old manual scale right beside it. Weights on that are almost identical everyday but 11 lbs lighter which has been my weight for the last few months. No idea what’s going on.

@MacJW   I don't know if this will help or not.  Try storing you scale on it side for at least several hours or maybe overnight.  I use an Aria 2.  The Aria 2 will show a wavy line that it is recalibrating.  I don't know if an Aria shows the same

Left it on its side overnight. Initial weight gave an error. (ERR) Tired again and it worked but gave a bogus weight off by at least 15 lbs. I tried to post 5 weights I took in a row but this forum gave an error message. They were all over the place. I’ve given up. Must have tried 50 times by now. It appears unfixable. Purchasing a 3rd party scale that can integrate with Fitbit. Thx for the comment though.
