9 . Squeeze the removal tool to push the tabs into the sensor slots until the electrode
stack and lamp are released.
10 . Carefully lift the PID sensor body away from the electrode stack and lamp. If the
lamp remains lodged in the sensor body, carefully remove it with tweezers.
11 . If the spring in the lamp cavity comes out, place it back into the lamp cavity.
12 . Discard the old electrode stack.
13 . Hold the new electrode stack between the thumb and forefinger of one hand and
place the window end of the lamp inside the O-ring seal in the new electrode stack
with the other hand as shown below. Take care not to touch the lamp window.

14 . Twisting the lamp slightly during insertion will help to ensure the lamp window is
snug against the stack's front electrode. The lamp should be supported by the O-ring.
15 . Continuing to hold the electrode stack between your forefinger and thumb, carefully
insert the lamp into the lamp cavity in the sensor ensuring that the lamp remains in
position.
16 . Press in the electrode stack firmly to ensure that the stack wing clips are engaged and
the faces of the stack and sensor body are flush.
17 . Carefully line up the PID sensor’s connections with the connections on the bottom of
the socket and slowly insert the sensor in the socket.
18 . Do not attempt to push the sensor in farther once it makes contact with the bottom of
the socket until you are sure that the sensor’s connections are engaged with the
socket’s connections. If you feel that the connections did not engage, slightly rotate
the sensor back and forth without putting pressure on it until you feel the connections
engage.
19 . Push the sensor into the socket until it bottoms out.
