Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The returned sensor was evaluated.Visual inspection showed no external physical damage.The sensor failed continuity testing due to multiple broken traces inside the rd15 connector causing multiple open connections.The broken traces were likely due to mechanical stress from removal of the sensor from the cable based on the appearance of the break.The sensor was connected to a monitor and a "no sensor connected" error message was displayed and the sensor leds do not illuminate.Initial reporter zip code exceeded maximum allowable digits, zip code is as follows: (b)(6).Corrected data: model # corrected from 4051 to 4051-9.
