    Waterproof probes for Maverick's

    I've been checking around & found two places that sell waterproof probes for my ET 732. Just wondering if any of ya'll know anything about these ? The probes are a weak link...these might just be the fix.

    Sorry, I need to re-read the instructions to post links better.

    barney You can also go and buy some high temp silicone and fill in where the wire meets the probe. That's what I have done, works great. And the silicone is cheap. Just a thought.

      I have some leftover red silicone that came with the gasket set I bought for the WSM. Shouldn't that be safe to use where the wire meets the probe?

      jlazar It should be fine. That is what I used. I was putting a new gasket on my BKK and used the left over on my probes.
