I tried that, but they wouldn't. The PRO-C controller was warranted for 2 years, and the solar sync sensor for 5 years. I could have gotten a free outside sensor from a local supplier in Summerfield for free during the warranty period by taking the old one to their office, but it is now out of warranty. On Amazon, you can buy the outside sensor for $105.97 and the PRO-C inside controller for $110.38. At this point, if I do anything, I will replace the sensor with a wireless rain sensor, and not use a solar sync system. The problem with the solar sync system is that it can change your watering times without your knowledge, and not always the best timing for your lawn. Also, you cannot permanently disable the solar sync function without also disabling the rain sensor. I never did like the system even when it "worked".
