Troubleshooting Tips
A couple of quick tips in the field to determine causes of failure. If you suspect the control box is not working, disconnect the probe cord. Switch to Batt position, turn power up only until you can detect movement on the meter. With a flat blade screwdriver or similar tool, short across the two opposing pins on the 3 pin connector. The meter should jump up to a higher reading. If this does not happen the problem is probably in the control box. If it does jump then plug the probe cord in and connect the probe. With a piece of tin foil held in contact with all the electrodes on the body of the probe, the meter should again jump to a higher reading. If this does not happen the problem may be either the probe or cord. A common problem with the probe is a corrosion build up on the electrodes. They should always be kept shiny with light sanding.
NEW: Dual power setting; switch to ext. position for reduced power level,
