If go in to garage, where the controller is you should find a small white cable with 2 wires, you can disconnect (take a photo for future reference), try on a string, then go outside, remove the cover plate and pull the wire out, tie off the string, remove the sensor and send to Hunter, they will supply the address and RMA number. In about 10 days you will have a new sensor.
NOTE: you cannot use a MiniClick sensor on a Pro C solar sensor system. MiniClicks are around $40 locally, and Solar Sensors around $100 locally.
Ours failed after about 3 years.
Hope this helps.
PS, I have a miniclick for sale if anyone is interested.
Thanks villagetinker. The rod seems to be stuck in the down position flush with the top. Looks like it has a cover on it but I didn't want to pry it off.
