It could be that this voids your warranty.
Some of the electronics inside the pedal are sensitive to strong magnets and if your pedals come in close contact with strong magnets they may begin transmitting abnormal data. If you think your pedals were exposed to the magnetic field of a strong magnet please remove battery and leave for one or two day’s.  They should be working fine after this. If not please contact our support team.
