Does the manual have a number to call the manufacturer? That would be the first place to call.

I don't know what you mean by broken. I am presuming that you know it isn't the batteries. I have found when I run into that problem(broken sensor)that once I find a replacement sensor it is usually more cost effective to buy a whole new unit.
I have a unique situation now at my house. I have three terminals and only two sensors. The two sensors I know which unit they go to and have them in different places. The third unit I have I threw the sensor away after doing everything I knew to do with replacing batteries, etc. It is now reading from a sensor somewhere, but I don't know where since it doesn't match the temps on the other two units. Things that make you go hhhmmmm??? :o

If you cannot get the manufacturer to replace the sensor free, then I agree with vbhoutex that it's not worth repairing a $50 weather station. Time to upgrade.
