Mine recently fell off the glass and into the water dish. I had just calibrated it too. Anyway, I tried taking it apart and blow-drying it with hairdryer. It never read right again, even after re-calibrating. So I had to buy a new one!! You can try to save it, but use both to see if they read the same for a while before relying on it soley again!!
