No output from PIR sensor

I purchased the PIR sensor Rev B and it works fine, based on the red light lighting up to detect motion and while it is calibrating. However, there is no signal from the output pin. I have tested several times, and there is zero volts and zero amperes coming from the output pin. I tested for shorts and everything. I have also contacted support to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    How are you testing the output? What do you have connected to the PIR and how?

    I tested it with a DMM and by hooking it up to various low-input devices.

    You can contact Tech Support and have it sent in for testing. We can determine is there is a problem and offer options from there.
