Apex Jr...Help!!!

Just a quick update I order a new probe should be here in a few days. Will let you know the outcome.
 
I had a used apex jr and the temp continually jumped up. tried new probe and same thing was happening. ended up getting a full apex that works fine
 
Temp probe was the issue! Replaced with a new probe, however this was not a quick fix. The display was registering 69 Fahrenheit. So I read a similiar issue with the temp probe on the Neptune support forum. Mentioning to use a temperature indicating tools, using 2-3 different types to get an average reading. Example: first reading 81.9 with a Pen style, second reading 82 with pocket probe, 3rd 82. 5 with temperature indicator. Then take the average of all 3 and calibrate the temp probe. These low cost tools price around $15.
In my case I calibrated the temp probe to 80.0
Once I thought I was finish, around 10PM last night my lights shut off, when there suppose to be schedule to turn off at 12 midnight. Apparently all setting were off, so I had to reprogram all controllers. I was thinking this was probably from updating the firmware. Anyhow, all is working! And thank those who contributed comments to this thread.
 
Issue resolved! Replacing the probe resolved the issue. Thanks everyone for your input.
