Wrist Temperature Not Working & multiple iPhone & Watch Sources in Health App Settings

My wrist temperature monitoring stopped working after several years normal operation. I tried a few things, eventually hard resetting my Watch Ultra, setting it up from scratch & waiting a week for the temperature data to accumulate - still no good. Looking on my iPhone (16 Pro Max) in Settings-Health-Sources I see my current Apple Watch + 8 other "Apple Watch" entries all showing "No data found". I also see 40 (yes forty!) "iPhone" sources in addition to the expected entry for my previous iPhone (12 Pro Max). All the spurious iPhone entries show "No data found" & no option to delete. Something wierd's going on. How can I get wrist temperature tracking working again (& maybe clean up the incorrect health data sources)? - I'd really rather not have to hard reset my phone.

My iPhone 16 Pro Max is named "Fiona 4". My watch is "Andrew's Apple Watch".

Having checked these, I realise that the only valid iPhone entry in my Health sources is Fiona 4; this has data showing against it, none of the other entries do. There is no entry for my previous iPhone, though data from it has been migrated to my current phone (e.g. weight data).


Does this help?
