XSPC V2 temperature sensor

Hey guys. Just wondering if anybody can give me any ideas as to why my sensor is displaying Lo instead of a number. I just recently changed it to go with my new colour scheme and wondering if ive either got a faulty sensor or the temp is too low to give a readout. Any help will be appreciated

What happens if you put the sensor probe in your clenched fist?

Mine shows low when the sensor is unplugged. According the the website it will display temperatures down to -40c.

My guess is a faulty sensor that is not completing the circuit. Short the 2 connectors and it should show "Hi"

I did not know about the temp range. I did notice about the distance that it could be mounted and i've got an additional cable attached to display as the original wouldn't reach. it's the only thing i can think of even though it worked before on my old display and i've kept the same sensor

thanks for the suggestions guys, i've managed to resolve it. Turns out one of the pins on the extension cable had come out so i just reconnected it and running.
