Springfield weather station light on sensor stays on and it does not transmit data

The red blinking light, I believe is indicating the outside sensor is transmitting the outside temperature data to main weather station unit.

There are a couple of possibilities for the failure to transmit/receive outdoor data. First, resynch the two units. This will depend on the manufacturer. For some brands, you need to take the batteries out of both the indoor and outdoor units for 10 minutes. Then put the batteries into the devices with both side by side (working inside is easier). Wait until the outdoor data is displayed. There are some weather station systems where the outdoor unit isn't weather-proof. You may need to dry the outdoor unit for several days after removing the batteries before resynching it to indoor sensor.

If the data displays properly when the outdoor unit is inside, you may have the outdoor sensor too far away from the indoor unit. (The distance will depend on the number of walls and the composition of the wall studs/siding.) Try keeping the two units closer together.

If the outdoor data isn't displayed when the two units are side by side and the reset procedure doesn't work. One device has an internal malfunction (transmitter or receiver failed). It's probably best to replace the unit. If it is under warranty, contact the manufacturer.

I hope this helps. For specific details on resetting the indoor and outdoor units to synch them, please add a comment with the make/model of your weather station.

i have the same problem and have had 2 of these now. outside unit blinks like it is transmitting but nothing on base. SYNC per manual does not fix it.

I have the same problem. Any ideas? My guess is that the outside temp sensor is defective.

After 3 months and 4 emails to Springfield they finally responded and told me to buy my probe on Amazon. I can't find one on Amazon, do you have any suggestions or know of where I can purchase one?
