Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Solution

No outdoor sensor

reception

no bars

If the wireless signal indicator shows no bars:
•  Relocate the display and/or the outdoor sensor.  

The units must be within 330 ft (100 m) of each other.

•  Make sure both units are placed at least . 3 feet(9 m) 

away from electronics that may interfere with the wireless 

communication (such as TVs, microwaves, computers, etc.).  

•  Use standard alkaline batteries (or lithium batteries in 

sensor when temperature is below -4ºF/-20ºC). Do not 

use heavy-duty or rechargeable batteries. NOTE: It may 

take a few minutes for display and sensor to synchronize 

after batteries are replaced. 

Outdoor 

 temperature

is flashing or   

showing dashes

Flashing of the outdoor temperature is generally an 

indication of wireless interference. 

1.  Bring both the sensor and display indoors and remove 

batteries from each.

2. Make sure the A-B-C switches on both units match.

3. Reinstall batteries in the outdoor sensor. 

4. Reinstall batteries in the display.

5.  Let the units sit within a couple feet of each other  

for a few minutes to gain a strong connection.
