Thank you for your video. I really appreciate it. When I first purchased this machine it worked just like you stated. The second year of operation was less reliable and required CO2 cartridges and a ridiculously expensive CO2 cartridge attachment to clean out the propane burning unit. From this point on the operation was sporadic and VERY frustrating. I also found that the mosquito magnet CO2 cartridges where expensive to purchase and it was suggested that every time I swapped out the propane tank, I was required to use a CO2 cartridge to clean out the working parts. I did this as per Mosquito Magnet instructions. All in all it cost me about $100 to $150 to run for the first season. This expense excludes the purchase of above mentioned equipment ie the cartridges and attachment. In year 3 (this year) I fired up my mosquito magnet and spent an entire day trying to get it running. As the warranty on this useless machine had expired after the first year I had no issue opening it up. After watching a few KZbin videos I diagnosed a problematic "Thermistor" I believe this temperature probe regulates the internal temperature of the mosquito magnet and keeps it running. I went online to purchase a replacement part and found that there are no available parts for the mosquito magnet. The only item they allow to be sold online is the igniter part (on ebay) I called the mosquito magnet service people and was rudely informed that they do not have part numbers or are able to send me any parts at all. I was referred to a service center in Canada. Although Mosquito Magnet worked well for a year and caught basket loads of mosquito's the subsequent years year of operation were terrible. I paid $400 for something that has a shelf life of approximately a year to two years max. There is absolutely no customer service or parts available. I WOULD NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. Its finicky and expensive to run! I will be posting this to other mosquito magnet youtube videos sites in order to warn other people of this gimmick. If anybody wants to purchase my broken mosquito magnet and resides in Ontario please let me know and maybe I'll be able to re coop some lost money:)

Richard W's comment matches my experience almost exactly. I will say, that first year, it was unbelievable how many mosquitoes the unit caught. I was very impressed. Since I bought it in late spring, my warranty was still valid when it failed to start the next spring. I spent the second summer shipping the unit back and forth to Mosquito Magnet "for free". All summer...there is a new shorter warranty period when they send it back to you, but it didn't matter. I would literally get it back, follow the startup directions to a tee and watch that fast blinking red light after multiple attempts. Another trip to the UPS store....all summer and fall. I swear I think they just slapped a new label on it and sent right back to me each time. In the fall of the second summer I just gave up and decided to fix it myself. Here I am at the start of year 3. I've done everything you did prior to watching this video and have determined that it is the thermistor. If not, it's the circuit board. I was hoping to find a company for a replacement thermistor. If it's the circuit board I'm screwed. Mosquito Magnet would never sell you one of those. It's a one year product folks. Don't take my word for it. Just do a little searching. If your handy, you bought a yearly task and likely some part replacements. If your not, budget for a new unit each year. Does anyone know of a reliable unit in competition with Mosquito Magnet?

Thanks for taking the time to publish this video. I had mine mostly apart and determined I needed a new igniter (which was also the error code). Your video gave me the confidence to fully disassemble, clean and inspect. I found the inside of the chamber corroded and the drain plugged, so I got it all cleaned up. I also bought some 8-32 nylon screws (from an electronics supplier) to hold the thermistor in place (which I found with the head broken off). It’s all back together and running fine. Note that I have an old Liberty model, where the igniter is soldered directly into the circuit board, so I cut the plug off the new unit and soldered it in.

Hi, I did a complete service on my Mosquito Magnet patriot Plus today. Your video has been very helpful. Thank you very much. I have a suggstion. In the back of the fire chamber t is a spring with an opening on each side. Use a flat screwdriver on each side and press out the spring. Best way to clean the chamber is to disassemble it frrom the chamber and then you are able to take all filters out. Clean the chamber for carbon, use a brush to clean the ffilters and clean the wall inside the chamber for carbon build up. Inside it used to build up a lot of carbon. I took out at least 100 gram carbon. Now my Mosquito Magnet Patriot is working like a charm.

Have you taken apart your gas jet? Does it have any other parts inside it besides the jet itself and a "copper mesh" - nothing under the mesh? Former models used to have some channeling made with a screw with a "mushroom" looking part that restricted the gas flow or something like that.

Side note for who it concerns, those igniters are EXTREMELY easy to break. Had torpedo heater that i was trying to fix and igniter was bit stuck, got it out but it snapped in process. Then tried to measure what kind of voltage board puts out, but moment i turn it on, mosfet exploded so it needs to have load on it, so consider this when trying to repair. In this case its low voltage while mine was 230v heater. edit: got mine most likely fixed solenoid seemed to be bit stiff from storage, needed to take it apart. On 2013 model getting the peace sit properly is a pain and if i recall right you should never put grease on to help it slide, least certain types of grease. There should be products that works with natural gas though. I just carefully push it in place with parrot pliers being careful not to damage the O-ring. Cleaned the thermocouple and it seems to work now, gotta do more testing since i got this unit for free from E-waste pile. Also when you need to replace the gas line, see how it sits in place and when putting new one in place check it sits properly, mine got new line in old ends and sleeve didnt go trough the hole being bit larger so needed to remove some plastic to get it sit right. Otherwise the top wont sit properly same with unit internals and there is air flow issues. Mind replacing and sealing the airways so it can properly suck mosquitos in.

Davin, outstanding video! Thanks so much for what you've done here. This trap kills bugs like nothing else, when it's working; so it's definitely worth learning how to do good upkeep on it. I've had my trap for 3-4 years (**), and had to send it back three times for maintenance. (Last time, they sent me a replacement, refurbished unit.) Now, a year after the replacement, mine is down again. Very finicky device. But with your video, I have plenty of hope that I can repair it myself. Going to give it a shot this week. I've already taken out and cleaned the nozzle -- mine was black on the "filter" end with carbon buildup. I cleaned it pretty well with rubbing alcohol, and the quick clear cartridge seems to flow freely through it. But in the meantime, I noticed that it's very hard to find out what are the correct part numbers for replacement parts. Do you have a list of them? Or advice on how to identify them? I haven't found good resources. If you are able, I think it would be great to post a list of the most obvious parts: the nozzle, the thermister, the solenoid/valve... anything else?

Looks like no 12 volts coming from board, and no continuity from board solder joints to output pins (for solenoid activation) so assuming corrosion on solder joints is the problem. This unit has been outside in the rain for ten years, and not sure how they would expect the electronics to function in such a harsh environment. Hope I am on the right track; will desolder and re-solder the board solder joints next.

What I think often happens is that the thermistor gets old or the probe is too covered in corrosion. Either way, the machines does not read the proper resistance and does not think it has started. What I like to do it try to run it. If it lights, the metal of the heat exchanger will warm up fairly fast. If you feel that warmth and then it still shuts off, it must be the thermistor (or the wiring related to it). I hope you got it working again. Sorry it took so long to respond.

Sorry for the late response. You won't be able to order one as the company does not sell parts to the public. I can not find my purchase from way back when. I have looked around and can not find anything either. Basically, you would just need to buy a bare thermistor and put it in. I need to take one apart again and try to determine what thermistor is being used (resistance/temperature). That said, have you tested yours with a multimeter? If you heat it up and the voltage changes, it is probably OK. I will point you to this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGGpanyhn9aIjKc. I think his idea of securing it with a metal screw is a good one. It would help to bring more heat to the thermistor. the only down side would be the possibly of corrosion between dissimilar metals.

Hi Davin and thanks a lot for this quite interesting video. As many of us I've encountered this fast blinking red light problem.. I've taken the whole thing apart to clean it up , and then tested every part as you did. My problem was different, the solenoid seems to work as I have gas flowing out of the nozzle (after a cleaning session though), still the igniter/heater element never glowed during the 15 min session, it remained cold all the way. I've tried to check the voltage as well , and was surprised to measure about 1,5V when turned on. Any idea or hint to get this igniter to glow as well as yours? 😅 Thanks you in advance for your time and have a great day Cheers
@DavinDesborough24 күн бұрын
Thanks for the compliment! As for the ignitor, they are very fragile, and it might have a hairline crack, which would render it useless. The good news is that replacements are available on ebay and such. Just search for "mosquito magnet hot surface ignitor". It is possible that there is something wrong with the control board, but that seems less likely. I have not purchased one, but the ones commonly listed seem to be more of a probe and look a bit more sturdy. One thing about the voltage, did you try to read it as DC or AC? Power to the machine is AC, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if the ignitor was receiving AC and that is why your measurement was off. I have never tried to measure that circuit myself, so I am just guessing here. Best of luck!

I know this is a super old video but hoping you’re still around. I can’t seem to get my igniter to light or my selenoid to open. I’m skeptical both failed as I put a volt meter on the leads for the igniter and I get zero voltage at that first fan slowdown and speed up. Any ideas on that? Board itself failed? The fan still fires up and I never get a fast flashing light just the steady startup flashing light the entire time, for hours if I leave it be.

Still here! That does seem odd. I would start by undoing all the plugs on the circuit board and trying to clean it. Get some high percentage isopropyl alcohol and an old toothbrush and scrub the board. Perhaps there is just something across a couple pins or something. The failure mode, however, makes me think something is wrong with the main control chip and it is freezing up at a certain point. It shouldn't run indefinitely like that. It should either start or present an error, but hopefully a cleaning will fix it. After that, try starting it with the gas solenoid disconnected and see if it runs forever. If it still does, plug it back in and try the same test with the igniter. Lastly, re-run the test with the thermistor. If one of those tests changes the behavior of the machine, it might point to something to dive into more. Good luck and let me know if anything changes. Glad to help troubleshoot!

Thanks very much for sharing your findings. Question My power supply broke down. I know it is a 12V AC but do you know what is the voltage with no load ? (I wanted to replace it with a DC model but a 12VDC 3A is I guess not enough for the ignitor through the rectifier) Thanks in advance
@DavinDesborough2 ай бұрын
Huh, I had to go look at my transformer as I would have sworn it output DC. You are right 12v AC @ 3A. Anyway, why would you want to go to DC? There are parts of the circuitry that are expecting AC and you are just asking for trouble by feeding it DC. I would need to take a close look at the board to say what might be impacted, but you'd probably be better off to order a new clone supply for about $45 and call it a day. Example: amzn.to/3xyCDrd (affiliate link). I know the official ones are stupid expensive. If you want to splice some wires, you can get what looks to be the same thing I just linked to, but with a different plug for under $25 with coupon: amzn.to/3KUcNkz (affiliate link) That said, does the unit not power on at all with the old supply, or is it a startup issue? It would suck to buy a new PS only to have it still not start.

Thanks for your answer. Last winter I brought the moskito magnet in a shed but stupidly forgot the power supply that was hidden in the grass. It did not survive at all. Thanks for your amazon links. Unfortunately I am in Europe and my grid is 220v. I am unable to find one compatible here that is affordable. This is why I looked at a DC version. Looking at the circuitry I believe that a DC should work but it needs to be at the right level to compensate losses through the rectifiers. If you have a min to measure the unloaded voltage that would be a great help. Many thanks.

Hey man, I got a used mosquito magnet that isn't working, Ive checked EVERYTHING, ignitor lights up, thermistor is registering ohms and is going up and down depending on the heat if I blow warm air on it, thermistor is completely clean and new looking, propane is coming out nicely, gas orifice isn't blocked, solenoid clicks and opens gas, new propane tanks tried 2 different ones, everything is clean and seems to be working, but it's keep flashing fast red. I believe it's not actually igniting the propane. I don't really feel warmth at the front nozzle. Do you feel warmth at the front where the fan is sucking in? I'm thinking possibly the ignitor is weak and not igniting the propane? I can definitely smell the propane and the ignitor is definitely glowing completely red. It's just not wanting to run. I can't really feel any heat. Any advice? Do u think the ignitor is just too weak to ignite the propane?
@DavinDesborough5 ай бұрын
If it is glowing red, I would think it is hot enough, but I suppose that is possible. One thing to try to start it with the plastic off. The metal will absolutely be warm to the touch if it is running. You said you cleaned everything, but have you tried blowing out the catalytic converter (the tube inside the metal housing at 13:53)? If that is clogged, or not really reacting due to contaminates, it could be hampering the unit from getting hot enough. These are absolutely finicky machines, which is unfortunate given how effective they are when working. Good luck and feel free to send updates or further questions!

@@DavinDesborough Yes I have tried starting with the plastic off and on. Ive tried feeling the metal housing and I dont really feel any heat at all. It never gets to the solid red light though. So something is not allowing it to start. It doesnt seem like the propane is igniting, or its not staying lit long enough to feel heat. Maybe the thermister is shutting it down pretty fast before it heats up? I was checking the ohm resistance on my thermister and it was at like 250 k ohm I believe . Is that normal? Do you know what your ohm reading is on your working thermister? Yes I did take apart the metal housing and cleaned up the cata converter. I didnt see any blockages or debris in there. I blew it out but not with a compressor, just with my mouth. I scrubbed the metal parts a bit as there were some build up but not much. To give you an idea, my thermister was quite clean when I pulled it out, nothing like yours was, so the internals werent very dirty. I have no idea why its not starting, everything looks good, the igniter lights up, the propane flows, the thermister "works" and it registers heat. I dont really know if maybe the resistance is too high and not meeting the requirements, or maybe the igniter is not getting hot enough to ignite the propane. I am stumped...

I will do some tests on the thermistor when I take it apart this spring. I believe they are generally specified at 25 Celsius (so roughly room temperature) and 250k would be a reasonable value. I would also measure resistance at the pads on the back of the connector where the thermistor plugs in. The value may be a bit different as it will be in circuit, but should be in the same general range.

@DavinDesborough Жыл бұрын
If it will always run for about 5 hours and then stop with a low battery warning, then I will have to guess that the thermoelectric generator (TEG) is not supplying power back to the machine. That would mean it is running on only batteries, which quick run out. If you pause my Independence video at about 13:32 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKupqHp_otyFa80), you can see the TEG on the large heatsink in my right hand. I assume the Executive will have something similar. With all that said, all I can think to do would be to try and measure the voltage it is sending when the unit is running and hot. I don't know what the voltage is supposed to be or where you would get a new one. I mean, you can get one from Amazon (amzn.to/43kv0PD), but I don't know what the right size or voltage would be. Try to find some marking on the one in your machine and see what you can find searching on that. Again, this is all just a guess. Good luck!
