Help with cleaning an ozone probe

I amnow on my second ORP probe for a Red Sea Aquazone 200 ozonizer. The first one worked well and accurately for about 4 months, then started reading high (380) in regular tap water (orp usually around 80 where I live) Well, got a new one, and it read correctly for about 3 weeks, now it to is doing the same thing. I doubt the probe has gone bad this fast. How can I clean the probe? I have read that there is cleanign solution available for this, but is there some other way to do it, or other common checmical to use? Thnaks.

Just keeping this post active,
Sorry Maury, I don't know right off hand.
We use various diluted chemicals to clean pH, conductivity, specific ion, and ORP probes for work, but these are industrial instruments, and each manufacturer seems to have a different approach to troubleshoooting cleaning and general maintenance.
Unless someone here responds that has your same equipment, I'd suggest contacting a tech support person at Red Sea to help you. Using the wrong cleaning solutions may damage the probe.

Did you get a chance to email the manufacturer ??
Doesn't look like too many people jumping in on this one.
They make a cleaning solution:
