Just finished tearing a probe apart... No surprises there. if the new board does not do it im back to square one.
Sorry I've been working all night, you probably didn't have to take it apart just do some tester readings. what elkoe said makes sense about it not being parsed if it is in pp mode. but what would be causing it? can you read off any of the numbers on the ic that you pulled out of your probe? maybe its fake but they are so cheap i don't see why they would bother to counterfeit them. i once bought a test board from adafruit that has a legit Dallas Ic and is soldered to a breakout board. I assume you've tested all 10 probes? this is where a genuine arduino would come in handy, because I don't know any way to test if the probes are bad. only thing you could test at this point is if there is any significant change or dropout/spike when you plug up a temp probe. Test voltage at the point where you pull vcc to 5v, could be a slightly off regulator.
