The sensor’s aspirating fan helps internal airflow to ensure accurate ambient temperature readings while the sun is shining on the sensor. If the outdoor temperature readings are reporting too high, especially on hot or sunny days, the internal aspirating fan may not be functioning properly. When the fan is spinning, you will hear a humming noise. The following troubleshooting steps can be used if you can hear the aspirating fan making a clicking sound or if the fan is loud when you are at least 10ft away from the sensor.

It doesn't matter anymore. I no longer have this weather station. The sensor crapped out within 2 years. The one I have now, has been going for over 3 years.

@@davidclark9017 I have an Ecowitt 7 in 1 sensor. Off brand of one of the stations that are out there. It's lasted longer than the Acurite. Never had any issues with it at all. Got at Amazon Canada.

I recently noticed the same issue and am looking for answers now. I notice it happens when the solar panel is exposed to light so there's something about the solar panel electric generation involved.

I purchased the pro head to replace it. Hopefully, that solves the issue. I haven't replaced it yet though. Hoping soon.

I haven't heard any noise since replacing the head. Now, I have to replace batteries, but that's minor

I changed the head. Didn't help b/c it started losing signal a lot shortly after that. It's no longer up. Apparently, there's a lot of corrosion inside. It completely lost its accuracy. Bought an ecowitt weather station on Amazon.

The fan inside is seizing up. I changed to pro head & now it's no longer making noise. I did have a lot of issues with it, since changing head, with it losing connection to base. It has finally now stabilized & not losing connection as much, if at all.
