SECTION SIX: FREQUENTLY ASKED 

QUESTIONS 

 
WHY WON’T MY GRILL IGNITE? 

1)  Verify power at the electrical outlet. 
       a)  If Power Cord is connected to a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter), check and reset if 

necessary. 

       b)  Initiate startup. 

Still no ignition – Proceed to step 2. 

2)  Disconnect Power Cord from electrical outlet. 
       a)  Remove the Control and check the fuse on back. Replace the fuse if blown. 

Reinstall 

the Control!

 

       b)  Unplug Hot Rod connector (Purple/White wire pair), plug Power Cord into an 

appropriate, grounded electrical outlet and turn the Switch ON. 

NOTE:

 

At this point 

the Grill will not ignite. 

       c)  Check the Draft Inducer Fan and the Auger Drive Motor for operation. If both are 

operating -- the Hot Rod needs to be replaced. If one or both are not operating, 
contact Traeger Technical Support 

(SECTION SEVEN)

 for additional troubleshooting 

help. Contact your Traeger Dealer or the Traeger Parts Department 

(SECTION 

SEVEN) 

to place an order. 

3)  If the problem is identified to be a failed Hot Rod, the Grill can still be used to cook and 

smoke by following the 

MANUAL LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

 in 

SECTION THREE

 of this 

OWNER’S MANUAL. 

WHY ARE NO PELLETS BEING DELIVERED INTO THE FIREPOT? 

1)  Verify that there are Pellets in the Pellet Hopper. If this is the 

INITIAL FIRING

 or the Grill 

has run out of Pellets, allow sufficient time for the Pellets to travel from the Pellet Hopper 
to the Firepot (can take up to 4 minutes). 

2)  Initiate startup. See 

INITIAL FIRING INSTRUCTIONS

 in 

SECTION TWO

 of this OWNER’S 

MANUAL. 

     Still no Pellets in the Firepot – Proceed to step 3. 

3)  Disconnect Power Cord from electrical outlet. 
       a)  Unplug the Auger Drive Motor (Red/White wire pair connector) and the Draft Induction 

Fan (Orange/White wire pair connector). 

       b)  Reconnect the Draft Induction Fan to the Red/White wire pair and the Auger Drive 

Motor to the Orange/White pair. 

       c)  Plug Power Cord into an appropriate, grounded electrical outlet and turn the 

Switch/Dial ON. 

       d)  If the Auger Drive Motor 

is

 operating (check the small fan blade on the back of the 

motor), the problem is in the Three Speed or Digital Control, which will need to be 
replaced. Contact your Traeger Dealer or the Traeger Parts Department 

(SECTION 

SEVEN) 

to place an order. 

4)  If the Auger Drive Motor 

is not 

operating but the Draft Induction Fan 

is

 operating, the 

problem is in the Auger system, which will need to be checked. 

       a)  With the Switch OFF, locate the small fan blade on the back of the Auger Drive Motor. 
       b)  While watching the fan blade, turn the Switch to ON. If the fan blade 

does not 

turn, 

turn the Switch to OFF. This indicates a defective Auger Drive Motor and it will need to
