COMPONENT REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION 
PROCEDURES 

 

4.1

 

Introduction 

This section describes the removal and replacement (installation) procedures for primary 

components. 
 

4.2

 

Wind Sensor 

4.2.1  Removal   

a.  Note the location of the cable ties; two small ones on the wind sensor reflector plate 

stanchion and two larger ones on the neck of the sensor.  When a replacement sensor 

is installed, cable ties will need to be installed in these locations. 

b.  Cut the cable ties. 
c.  Remove the three screws with washers at the base of the sensor then gently pull the 

sensor straight up.  Be careful not to pull too hard as you may damage the wire 

harness for the sensor. 

d.  Grasp the connector body and turn counterclockwise to remove it.  You may need to 

use pliers as the connector fits tightly to the sensor.  

4.2.2  Installation 

a.  Remove the new sensor from the box and remove the rubber safety cap from the 

bottom connector of the sensor. 

b.  Attach the WEATHERPAK

®

 EOC connector to the bottom of the sensor and turn 

clockwise to lock in place. 

c.  Carefully mount the sensor on the top plate assembly making sure the wire harness 

does not get pinched.  All of the wire harness should fit inside the neck of the top 

plate. 

d.  Make sure the red arrow on the bottom of the sensor body points in the opposite 

direction (North) of the notch (South) on the bottom connector of the
