Thread: "clear board sensor"

    When I do the sensor test with white paper the reading is only about 12, but when I do it with a piece of yellow pine, it is about 78. Does that make sense?

    Are you cranked down on the paper.... Or up in the air...?

    I'm cranked down on the paper and the pine. I even tried laying the white paper on the pine and cranking down with the same result.

    Sounds like its time for a new sensor. Last time I purchased them they were about $15.00 each, I always buy 2 to have a spare. If you call LHR, they will walk you through the steps to make sure thats the problem.

    You could remove the sensor and cut the back off.... 1 of 2 things will happen... 1 or 2 LED's will fall off.... OR 2 you remove the sensor window and clean the INSIDE.... Use Masking Tape to seal the back.

    OR buy a sensor and always wonder if cleaning the inside of the window was what would have fixed it...
