Hi,

Welcome to the forum. Page 36 of the manual specifies "Temperature Range : -21.8°F to +157.8°F (show "OFL" if outside range)".

I don't know that specific station, but the fault is probably in the external sensor/transmitter, which may use a thermistor that has failed (perhaps become disconnected or short-circuited).

Thus the external transmitter probably needs to be replaced. But if you have any electronics experience/tools then it may be possible to identify the thermistor (if it exists) and perhaps repair/replace. However, a replacement thermistor may raise calibration issues.

Chers, Alan.
