Outside temperature sensor not working - Oregon Scientific Measuring Tools & Sensors

It is a known issue

Try first a general reset:
- remove the batteries from the clock (thus turning it Off.)
- remove the batteries from the outside sensor (if you are not aware that it has batteries, then perhaps it is not working because the batteries are no good any more! check that also.)
- wait 10 minutes with no power to the device.
- put batteries back in, power On again.
- hit Reset.
- hit Receive button.
- change the channel for reception from the outside sensor.
- change the channel on the outside sensor to match that channel.
- then set the time once more, once the remote temperature is sensed once again.

If this does not get the outside temperature reading working again, you may have to replace that temperature sensor.

Place your remote temperature sensor and the inside unit together for about an hour to see if they both read the same or if there is a large difference in the temperatures.

Dashes on the outside temperature reading may indicate that the inside unit is not receiving a signal from the remote. Change the batteries on the remote or change the location of the inside and/or outside units so that they can receive a strong signal between each other.

Your smartphone temperature may be coming from a location that is not near your home. They are often from a weather service. Where is your local temperature sensor located? Is it in the sun? Is it on the south side of the house, or another location where the sun or an air conditioner or other heat source may affect the accuracy of the reading? Try to locate your outside sensor in a shaded location with plenty of ventilation, and away from heat sources.

The outside temp sensor is located behind your front grille. Try to look for a 2-wire small sensor. You will need to remove the grille to gain smooth access and to test it. Use multimeter to measure sensor resistance when disconnected. Depending on actual air temperatures, sensor should measure 1.27 kilohms when at 104degF, and 16.5kilohms when at -4degF. The rest of the normal values should be in between these kilohms and temperature ranges.

dont know the full location but its on the front end around one of those ares are that you have had replaced, its only smale and has 2 wires connecting it, it clips into an area were there is good air flow.

Check the batteries in the main unit. If they get low it will only show dashes for the remote sensors.

Change heater output temperature sensor.That is a SAAB dealer job.

the sensor is located in front of radiator if you open hood and look down behind front bumper you should see it, or look from under the frt bumper, it easy to change, also get part from dealer it not $$,hope this helps.

To get the outside temperature working again, open the outdoor sensor box carefully loosening the one screw with a screwdriver, insert 3 brand new AA batteries, check phone for outside temperature. If not showing on the phone display, try changing the 'channel' setting, just above the batteries. Be careful not to break the tiny switch. Gently use a smaller flathead screwdriver, if needed. There are 3 settings. Mine worked fine on the first setting. If it is showing on the phone set screens, then, carefully screw the lid back on to the sensor box, and re-insert into the sensor wall holder. I keep mine in a plastic bag on a shelf outside, away from sun, so I can get a true reading day or night. It is always a bit warmer in the sunlight than the true outdoor air temperature. Enjoy
