Thanks for this video! Having hungry family type people over to the new house, having promised them some pork shoulder, and my igniter crapped out. Never thought to kick start it manually. Saved my bacon!

Sorry to hear, not sure why you are getting the code, I didn't get it on mine. You might have a newer controller than I had back then.

If this was the case and a fix why is the igniter bad makes little sense

The main control board had a short and was always keeping the igniter on the entire time. It's suppose to just turn on until it starts and then turn off, this one was staying on the entire time.

Does not work for me sadly

My regret as of late is dropping $1100 on the Pitboss 1600 Pro Series to have the igniter go out after 7 cooks.....WTF.....I should have gotten the Kamado Joe like I started to...but nooo listening to coworkers got me working on it like it's a Ford Taurus

I have had to replace my Igniter Probe 4 times and have only had my Pitt Boss for 1 & 1/2 yrs. Out of Warranty now, so its on me. I would never buy another Pitt Boss for this reason.

I have only had one.....and in the end it was actually the control board had an open circuit.....might want to clean it out good, plug it in and do not run it on and see if the igniter rod starts to glowing bright red....that what my issue was over all.....if the board has an open circuit and you have it plugged it, the igniter rod is always heating up and will burn it out super fast, because it never turns off like it's suppose to. I have video showing that exactly.

Replaced fuse, and igniter wasn't turning red. got a new one, ran 1 smoke and it blew fuse on me within an hour. now igniter isn't working again. Is this a control board issue you think? i have had bad luck contacting customer service.

Also if it's not feeding pellets this will not help....sound like the might be a problem with your auger or the auger motor.

Mine doesn’t fired up. So I’ll try your idea. I can hear it but it just won’t ignite. So I’ll let you know if your idea works on mine. Any idea why it won’t ignite

As long as you get the pellets on fire, the air from the fans will keep it going.

is Pitboss going to send you out a new heating element under warranty? i can image how long that will take if so :(
