SkyScan Atomic clock will not display outside temperature Put in fresh batteries and clock still does not display anything other than 2 dashes?
I had the same thing happen. I replaced the batteries in the outdoor sensor, but just got the two dashes on the clock that should display the outside temperature. After I replaced the batteries in the clock itself, the outside temperature then showed up properly on the clock. I also took all batteries out of both devices and replaced them in the order recommended in the directions on the back of the clock. I hope that helps.
