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.

I have the same unit (IWA-80055) and after not finding anything helpful on the net, I just messed with it until I got it fixed. Here's what to do:
1. Take the cover off the back of the remote sensor.
2. Set the chanel to ch.1. (I tried all three but only ch.1 worked for me).
3. Use several tools. (i.e. a stick, needle, what ever you can but you need two) and hold down the reset button on both the sensor and the clock. (at the same time.)
If done right, it should only take a few seconds to start.
The outside temp is delayed at first. Be patient.

Hello. Chances are that the battery contacts in the outdoor unit are corroded due to exposure to moisture. Do this. Remove the batteries and clean the battery contacts in the device using the eraser end of a common pencil. Then reinsert the batteries. If that doesn't do it, go to any auto parts store and get a can of electrical contact cleaning spray and repeat the above steps. J.

Hi, it's one of the problems with the Oregon Scientific RRM968PA Clock Radio and as time goes on the display will go blank and you won't see anything again.
The display is actually gradually fading off and there is nothing you can do to stop it except getting prepared to replace it with a new one...
Double check the batteries to make sure they are installed correctly. If one of the batteries in the outdoor sending unit is in backwards, it will not send the outdoor data. On the indoor unit, there is typically one battery that is used for receiving the signal from the outdoor unit. If all of the batteries are in correctly but that one, you will see the display and the indoor temperature information, but the outdoor information will not be displayed. If there are reset buttons, also try them.
