Current Sensor SEN0098

I am having trouble with the 50A current sensor. I've used one many years ago with no problems. Now, with a new sensor and the arrangement suggested on product page (https://www.dfrobot.com/product-580.html) I can't get a reading, except for a zero point value of approx. 0.06 A. A current meter verifies that the current through the sensor is 0.5 A. What am I doing wrong? What should I check, test, or modify?
Thanks,

This sensor simply outputs the value via analog. As you've already used one before, I assume that you should be very familiar with the wiring stuff. But it will be still good to double check the wiring. Once more thing to do is to provide other current value to see if the sensor gives different readings? If not, your sensor may have something wrong and contact sales to get a replacment.
