Can't get clock to find and read outdoor temperature. New batteries, changed location, reset - nothing seems to work
SOURCE: Wireless thermo clock not reading outside temp
I've had a similar problem with another model, an Oregon Scientific Model IWA-80055 Wireless Thermo Clock, in which when I replaced the batteries in the remote sensor, the clock would not read the temperature from the remote sensor.
I found it fairly consistent to solve this by taking a battery out of place in the clock and putting it back in. Unfortunately this also messed up the clock's time and date. This is also in the instructions catalogue for the device, check and see if yours gives a similar solution.
SOURCE: I cannot open the remote sensor for my Oregon Scientific PSM06AR.
I believe the back of the sensor slides open. There may be a faint arrow on the back that indicates the direction in which you push.
My unit took well over 24 hrs to reset. I think it has to do with the position of the satellite in relation to where you live.

The signals are not being received by the main unit. Try to reposition the unit or move it to a different location. Also make sure the antenna is in the clear and not next to any thing like a cordess phone or charger as these can make RF noise that can block or cover the needed signals.

Make sure that the clock is set for the correct time zone and that the DST (Daylight Saving Time) function is ON. Also, although not mentioned in the manuals, these clocks will typically jump and hour ahead or behind when the batteries get weak. Replace your batteries if they are more than a year old.
