M5 GNSS module magnetometer false reading

[proTartareSauce]

Hi all,

I'm using the M5core2 combined with a M5 GNSS module for a position-attitude tracking project.
I have issues with the values read by the bmm150 (magnetometer).

Here is the typical values I get when running the getSensorData exemple :
mag: -991 -32768 -431
First, these values should be micro Tesla and this is just way too high.
Second, the Y-value is -32768 which is the lowest possible value for int16_t, the data type returned by bmi270.readMagneticField(mx, my, mz); I guess this indicates a kind of unwanted behavior.

If anyone has a lead on this problem let me know !
Thanks,

PS: other sensors seem to work fine

Here is the code from the exemple:
