Replace the wind directional vane:
Gently remove the piece of plastic in the top center of the vane to reveal
the screw that holds the vane to the sensor.
Remove the screw.
Gently pull the vane straight up and off of the sensor.
Carefully place the new vane on the sensor; notice the groove to seat it
properly.
Insert screw through the vane to the sensor and tighten properly.
NOTE: do not over tighten.
Complete a restart to connect sensor to the display.

Replace wind cups.
In the bottom center of the wind cups is a plastic lock pin. Gently pry the
