FIGURE 6-6. Wind speed sensor with boot down and exposing wires
c. Identify the wind speed sensor as the sensor with three cups that rotate
around the main sensor body. It is located on the top, rear of the
weather station main body.
Do not twist or place side pressure on either the wind speed
or wind direction sensors at any time during this sensor
removal/replacement process as it may cause them to break
off of the weather station main body.
d. Just below the sensor rotating cups, there is a flexible boot. Without
using tools, peel the boot down, folding it back upon itself and the
sensor mounting post. This will expose two wires connected to two
separate threaded terminal studs, retained by 1/4-inch nuts (FIGURE
6-6).
Take care not to place side pressure on the sensor itself, and do
not place downward pressure on the weather station main body as
this may damage the temp/RH sensor cage on the underside of the
weather station.
e. Using the 1/4-inch wrench, loosen the nuts and remove the wires.
f. Locate the single Phillips head screw on the side of the sensor body.
This is not either of the screws next to the threaded terminal studs.
Using the Phillips screwdriver, remove the screw.
