pH and temp reading is 0.

Hi, I've had my reef angel for a few months now. For whatever reason I'm getting 0 for T1 and 0 for pH. I'm using SIMPLE_MENU with the development libraries.

Did the readings ever work with SIMPLE_MENU before?
Or you are just added it now?
What happens if you reboot the controller?

They did work before. When I reboot, nothing changes. I hope by reboot you mean unplug the controller wait a few and then plug it in again.

for (int a=0;a<6;a++)
{

I tried another temp probe as well. Same issue.

That means the controller is not seeing the probes.
It could be one of the probes is bad.
If you remove all the probes, you should get pH readings.
Now, plug just one probe and reboot the controller.
Do you get any temperature reading?
Do this for each probe you've got. Only one temperature probe at a time though.

When I remove all temp probes and reset, the pH is still at 0.0 . Is there a proper way of rebooting? I unplug the controller from the relay, wait a few seconds, and plug it back in.

it's strange that it's getting an analog signal but not displaying the pH properly.

Yeah. I think your board may have gonne bad.
You can send it in for repair.
