Etc 11 Posted September 8, 2018 Hi guys. Can you take a look at the picture? Can you confirm? : The two pin sensor detects water or high amount of humidity The cinlinder sensor is for pressure The rectangular piece is the main circuit. Some water (very little) came in. Although I dried everything well and pulled out the battery, the red and noise alarm keep going on everytime I turn on the circuit. I'm pretty sure no water touched the circuit, so I guess the only thing that can be wrong is the moisture detector. Does any one know how can I get a new one and replace it?

MJvC 9 Posted September 8, 2018 The cylinder is the audio buzzer that sounds in the event of moisture bridging the 2 pin sensor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etc 11 Posted September 8, 2018 Ups. So, where is the pressure sensor? Anyway I'm afraid what I have to replace is the moisture sensor. But I'm not sure if I can find a spare one anywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

errbrr 73 Posted September 9, 2018 Cut the heat shrink off the wire leading to the two pin sensor and see if you have corrosion in there bridging the gap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Etc 11 Posted September 9, 2018 Right, but what if it is bridged?. Just clean and join the wires again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Architeuthis 135 Posted September 10, 2018 Hi Etc, I had the same problem with my Nauticam moisture alarm, even without water coming into the housing (http://wetpixel.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=60610&hl=). I disassebled the contacts (heat shrink/yellow wires in your pictures), covered with heat shrink and soldered again. Helped temporarily. After the alarm made problems again in the cabin of a safari boat (high humidity), I completely clipped off the "sensor" from the yellow wires and until now it works fine (vacuum system is far more important, prevented already 2x that I went into the water with not perfectly sealed housing. In addition the blank endings of the yellow wires do exactly the same job as the "sensor")... Wolfgang Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, I solve the proble just raplacing the battery!!! Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
