As I mentioned in a previous post, it looks like the DewBuster temperature sensor is busted after all these years of non-use.
After following the troubleshooting instructions at the DewBuster site, I contacted Ron about the issue. He quickly provided three possible causes of the issue, one of which was "The contacts inside the sensor jack is oxidized. Try putting a few drops of alcohol on the sensor plug and plugging/unplugging repeatedly to wipe the contacts clean.".
Being the easiest to test, I immediately tried it and indeed, this resolved the issue! The telescope/ambient temperature sensor operation is back to normal. Ron made my day.
