it's 2 years old and batteries replaced when needed. Last week the word "unit" appeared with no warning so I reset but did not change battery and it worked fine...however again today the word "unit" appeared. I suspect if I reset again it will work ok for a few days. Is this a common problem and if I can no longer use should I now replace with a garman?
Is my Strada Wireless dead?

I have several Strada wireless computers, I've never had this happen, if the battery is on its way out the display usually starts fading before it goes completely dead. It may be goosed.
I agree with you...that's what I expected to happen the display to start fading..and as this has not happened and the word "unit" suddenly appeared I have a feeling that it's time to say bye bye

No, I've never yet had to replace a battery in a wheel sensor only the head unit. The battery in the sensor will only need replacing if it stops detecting wheel movement. One of my Strada's has recorded nearly 7500 miles and the sensor battery has never been replaced.
Following you advice Vickster I dropped an email to cateye and received a reply from their distributor in Darlington. I have now sent my old strada wireless to them and am hopeful of a replacement
