I think the transmitter part is dead, it works for a few days or weeks after I change the batteries but then stops.
Are you sure it's not cheap, old batteries you are fitting? My sensor are pole mounted at the top / far end of my garage. I ran a two core from the battery pins in the unit, down into the garage so they were easier to relplace when necessary and running from larger batteries for longer life.
I tried some different batteries, and also cleaned the contacts. I tried IKEA and Duracell.
