There is no pH reading as the pH meter has stopped working. I tried to fix it by:
- changing the batteries
- trying fresh buffers
- cleaning the sensors on the tip
- taking it apart to see if anything had become unplugged.
Nothing worked.
This is the same kit that the local St Andrews landcare uses, so it would be great to get a new meter.
Thanks Cindy
