Questions and answers
Replaced all batteries. Outdoor temperature readings still do not appear. Everything else is fine.
If the outdoor temperature readings do not appear on the ACU-RITE 01608 after replacing all batteries, possible issues include:
1. Wireless interference from devices like TVs, microwaves, or computers.
2. Improper battery installation.
3. The sensor and display have not re-synchronized yet.
4. The units are too far apart or not within range.
To fix this, bring the sensor and display indoors, remove and reinstall one battery from each, and place them a few feet apart for a few minutes to re-establish a strong connection.
