 The outdoor Temperature reading will flash when the connection is first lost or intermittent between the clock and the outdoor transmitter.  Distance/Resistance is generally the cause of intermittent connection or loss of connection between the transmitter and the clock.  Check the position of the clock. Turn the clock 90 degrees towards the outdoor transmitter for better reception.  Try the quick connect or factory restart.  Batteries often resolve the connection issue.

 If the temperature remains on while in the house then it is likely a distance/resistance issue. Move the transmitter to different locations outside to find a location where the temperature reading will hold.  Distance/Resistance can cause loss of transmitter signal.  Check Batteries. Outdoor Temperature Is Stuck or OFL  The last outdoor reading may remain (not change) for several hours when connection is lost.

 Mount the transmitter on the North side to prevent sun from causing incorrect readings.  Mount at least 6 feet in the air for a strong signal.  Outdoor transmitters are water resistant but not water proof.  Avoid more than one wall between the transmitter and the Clock.  Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that will interfere with the signal.  RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt.

 Consider the distance the clock is located away from other electronic in the home. Resistance:  Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the range.  When considering the distance between the transmitter and the clock (330 feet open air) cut that distance in half for each wall, window, tree, bush or other obstruction in the signal path.  Closer is better.  Do not mount the transmitter on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the effective range.

 This is generally a power related issue. Check that the AC cord is plugged in correctly.  Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries and AC cord from clock.  Press any button 20 times. Leave the clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.  Install AC cord and/or fresh alkaline batteries with correct polarity. Clock Has Distorted Display  On a brand new clock check for thin plastic films of printed scratch guard that may be on the upper and lower screen of the clock.
