Trouble Shooting
: Problem and Solution
Burner will not light
• Check gas supply to burner by manually lighting the burners.
•
See electrode for visible damage, replace if damaged.
Improper Burner Flame
• Check burner gas inlet area for blockage
•
Check orifice hoods for any clogging and clean.
•
Adjust air shutter, if necessary.
• Check pressure if flame is too low or too high.
• Check gas supply tank (LP) if running low.
Light is not ON
• Connect 115V power at rear. Turn switch ON.
•
Make sure the transformer was used in installation and your grill was NOT hooked up
directly to 115 volt power source.
• Check bulb. Replace if necessary.
•
Check any GFCI plugs in line.
My knobs are hot and/or the control panel is blue and wiring is burnt up. Sounds like a rear wind
issue. Do you have a back-splash or wind block? Do you live on a hill, lake or large open area?
Fire in the grill? You r grill may be grill is full of grease, or was? Have you cleaned it recently……or ever? Is
there foil in the clean-out tray? Not good, please remove it.
“My grill is covered with rust”. Do you have a pool nearby? Are chemicals stored under the grill? Do you live
on a coast or near it? Is the grill VERY new but the spots have occurred due to acid washing concrete? Are
the spots ONLY on the grill and not doors and drawers? Are the “spots” in a spray fashion? Occasionally
this occurs when the construction is still going on and the equipment is in the area. Chemicals (acids
usually) are sprayed on the brick or stone to clean it. The spots are surface rust and are not covered under
warranty. We recommend using Bar Keepers Friend to clean the spots off.
“My grill does not get over ( blank ) degrees” It is possible that you need a new heat indicator, perhaps the
original one is mis-calibrated. OR is your grill LP and you have it in a natural gas situation (or vice versa)?
See the manual regarding grill conversions. OR if your home builder installed your grill, you they may have a
flow-restricter in the line. An easy way to test this is to remove the cooking grids and grates/briquettes below
so you may observe the operation of the burners. Light one, notice the height of the flame which on high
should be 1 ½” to 2”. Then turn on a second burner then a third. The flame height should remain the same. If
not, you have a low-pressure situation and it is not the fault of the equipment, check with your builder.
