We have a 8" Mitutyo 500-197-30 caliper. It's blinking dashes. We have tried a couple new batteries including Energizer 357 and it still acts this way. The back of the caliper says use a SR44 battery, however when you try to buy that you can LR44 or 303/357/76 Duracell. None of them work.
 
I think if you press and hold the on/off button for several seconds, the unit resets and the blinkiness goes away. One of mine just did the same thing. You will want to re-check zero if you do the reset.

Oops - wrong button. Munruh's got it.
