yeh you can always spot the engineers - their houses are full of stuff that they fixed that now almost works and their wives are sick of hearing the words 'nah I can fix that/make that!'

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

Same reply as the rest it's a back to AP to replace the sensor.
I had the same issue twice last year once on the surface prior to a dive & the other in the water.

If the sensor goes you are diving a "classic" so a good reason do have backup puter/ tables so you can still dive the unit. Can't remember the exact questions it asks but it does ask you to put in the AM pressure & then lets you calibrate.

The sensor comes from a VR3 btw or so I was told by tech at the factory when I did a I'm not happy call to then after the 2nd failure.

2 hammers, actually. A little one and a big one. Ya hit it first w/ little hammer. If that doesn't fix it, then grab the big one and hit it HARD. That will either fix it or trash it. If it trashes it, what the h#ll, it needed replacing anyway, right?
