Sounds like the humidity sensor is on the way out?

Something definitely is wonder if you can get replacements and will they be as costly as a new Vue?
Thanks Mark.

Hi Dazza, thanks for the info, no I've never updated it but might give it a go, but don't think it will help as it was fine and working ok up till about must be about 3 months ago I noticed those strange readings, so took it all apart and shook out all the spiders, even had one in one of the wind cups it must have got dizzy
and several running round the circuit board, anyway put it all back together but still the same.... thanks again for the info... where you go for parts?
