How to Replace an Igniter on any Pit Boss Wood Pellet Grill | Pit Boss Pit Stops

[@pyrefree73]

Great help. Big thanks to the person who suggested tying the string to help pull through. Got 3 years out of mine before replacing rod. All’s well!

[@PitBossGrills]

That is such great news! So glad you are enjoying your unit!

[@demondmccray8582]

I got about 8 cooks on my 1600 and I can't get my igniter disassembled. It's different from this video and Pitboss support has been no help. So I currently have a 2 month old big pellet grill just sitting in my backyard useless

[@dtodd8528]

I wish I'd read this first!

[@michaelsell6928]

Good for you. I got 5 months and 9 completed cooks.

[@mattensley2641]

[@El_SantoTaco]

Thank you for all these tutorials! I love my pitboss and i recommend them to everyone who comes over to my backyard hangouts.

[@PitBossGrills]

Thanks Agustin, we do it for you! Keeps us going on bad days

[@chaplint70]

I recommend adding a string to this replacement. Attach a string to the old igniter end right at the split of the wires. Pull the igniter wire (and string) out through the grommet hole. Then cut the string off. Attach that end of the string to the split in the new igniter and feed the new igniter into the hole. Then just pull the string to pull the new igniter through to the fire pot. Takes all the hassle out of install. Not pictured in video. Remove the grommet from the old igniter via the igniter end and feed it into the new igniter before install.

[@satturatedphat]

I was thinking something like this... I was thinking about taping the wire end to the old burner tip, pull it through disconnect old, connect new, done and done

[@missourioregon]

Hooked the new connection to the old init. Was able to attached through original hole

[@mattensley2641]

Don't do this just pull the old out and put the new in

[@chocoholicforbooze]

I have a 4 year old PB and the igniter is no longer heating properly to ignite the pellets. How can I get to the igniter set screw if the screws for the firebox are rusted to the point they can't be turned with a screwdriver or socket? I've always kept my grill covered, so this shouldn't have happened if proper materials were used.

[@PitBossGrills]

We can understand that sometimes the screws are super snug and can be frustrating. There are a few things we can try to get the screws off. I recommend getting a Flathead Screwdriver and a Hammer. I would give the screw(s) that are giving grief a few love taps on the side of the screws head. This should loosen it up and be easier to unscrew. If that doesn't work depending on how many are left, you can turn the access panel to get access to the back of the screws head. All else fails you can carefully drill the screws out. The Access panel screws dimensions are about M5 .08 Thread.

[@MikeHensley-sc3ns]

Metal is too much like junk and gone to be getting a hammer and and hitting anything. Junk metal used and rusted out and never been wet. Wtf?

[@williamhoodtn]

This procedure is very easy to do. Much better than the latest video from Pit Boss that shows you having to take off the hopper assembly. At least for the PB1100, you can follow the procedure shown in this video, works fine!

[@markferrari9734]

This is a pretty simple task that took me less then 10 minutes. How much easier does it need to be?

[@demondmccray8582]

@Mark Ferrari They should make it where you don't have to replace it after a couple of months and just a few cooks. It's like replacing an alternater in a 2022 vehicle with the new car smell still in it. If I knew I'd be opening up panels and unscrewing devices I would have gotten a Kamado Joe instead. Excuse my rant but $1100 is too much for their parts to fail that easily.

[@kairu.kun.z]

@@markferrari9734 naw bro a lot of other companies make it easier than this.

Mine lasted for 2 years.... yours went bad because you didnt clean it or service it properly

[@ivmurk21]

⁠@@JABBAWOKKYnot even remotely true. I am meticulous about cleaning mine and keeping it seasoned. I vacuum the ash out of my burn pot after every cook. My igniter barely lasted 7 months.

[@joeb1906]

I’ve had my Pitboss Pro Series for approximately 1 year coming up in June, still a few months shy , and my igniter went out tonight. Pitboss has been great with my warranty , sending me parts that have Been defective. I’m starting to think , this grill has had a lot of things go out. Grates, temperature proves, now this.. I am considering the fact that I use mine daily. This thing has changed the way we eat! So I’m going to ride out my 5 year warranty and appreciate to positive over the negative

[@johndaly9905]

I’ve had mine for about three months. I just pulled out the old igniter. I’m trying to install the new igniter but it will not fit through the hole via the hopper. Super frustrating! Now I’m left without a smoker till God knows when.

[@DZ4295DBW]

Im probably going to upgrade to the Digital model soon. Since my bare bones one has a dead igniter

[@jermainekelley1710]

I’ve had my grill for just over a year , The igniter went out and PitBoss sent me a new one right away. However I can’t removing the fire pot because the screws have deteriorated. It’s literally fused together. Hopefully i can find a solution. I love my grill! Help

[@jeffnadeau8411]

Thank you! Worked like a charm! Seems as if the smoker works even better now! Granted, I feel the same way when I spend an arm and a leg for new brakes or tires - but, hey it works!

[@tonyp56301]

If your Pit Boss is acting up like mine and tripping breakers, you can do one or both of these options. OPTION 1: Get your pellet grill going and then disconnect the purple and white igniter wires. This will prevent a faulty igniter from tripping your breaker after you've started grilling. OPTION 2: Run a switch oto the outside of the grill just for your igniter. Turn the switch on to start the grill and turn the switch off once the grill is started. 🤯 The first option is $FREE.99 and the second option will cost you a couple bucks at your local store.

[@missourioregon]

I’ve had my 700fb for almost 3 years and not one issue besides the paint peeling. Great video and great customer service and products! I will still always recommend Pit Boss!

[@nietbepalen]

Last morning i found out that the igniter was pulled back in his house and the cable was too short and not locked with the screw....i lengthen it under de hopper.. Now my 850 is a beast❤❤❤❤❤

[@israelpena8163]

This video just saved the Mother's Day pork butt. While cleaning, the igniter slid back into the burn tube, and I couldn't remember how to pull it through. After an hour of trying my way, I fast-forwarded this video to the part I needed, and BOOM fixed it in 15 seconds. I will learn nothing from this experience.

[@joemanlove3145]

The firepot screws can also be taken out with an 8mm hex socket. Also, the zip ties may need to be cut before there's enough slack to get at the set screw.

[@jeffnadeau8411]

I was so grateful for this option! I used some clamp pilers, but same concept.

[@MrAreese5]

Thank you Seems that screws are no longer good after cooking

[@duelldrumcovers]

This is practically useless for the vertical smoker. The burn pot doesn't come out through the top, and there is a lot more to remove than just a single cover plate. A separate how-to video is definitely warranted in this case.

[@joesimone870]

[@f.k4879]

Thank you. You all are very responsive to concerns and questions. Customer service has been great! The igniter I replaced seems to stick out into the firepot a bit longer than shown in the video. Does this matter much?

[@PitBossGrills]

Good practice is 1/4-1/2 but it isn't the end of the world. It just runs a bigger risk of being covered in pellets and choking. If you ever wind up using an off brand and the ignitor is drowned in pellet waste that comes with non-100% natural pellets, like sugars or plastics, it would be a bit harder to start up the next time.It's a pretty simple mechanic going on, so its simple to address if something is going wrong, just keep an eye on it.

[@brett7794]

What if I leave the igniter rod out 1" instead of the recommendation of 1/2

[@PitBossGrills]

Hey Brett, if the igniter is too far into the firepot, it may burn out prematurely due to the direct heat from continuous fires.

Does anyone know if replacing the igniter will stop my pit boss Austin XL from shutting off after about 10 minutes? I already replaced the GFCI outlet thinking that was the problem but it’s still cutting off on it’s own.

[@PitBossGrills]

Hey JJ, the igniter draws the most amount of power and only stays on during start up. Most of the time when the grill has a power fault within 5-10 minutes it's due to the igniter. To test this, try leaving the igniter unplugged (purple/white wires) and run the grill. If it doesn't error out we know the igniter was at fault. Feel free to call our CARE Team at [phone] for further troubleshooting steps.

[@timjones2895]

The screws on the bottom plate - there are 7 of them - are too soft metal with shallow heads. Three of them shredded easily and I had to drill them out. Except they are threaded into permanent bolts on the inside, therefore once the heads are drilled off, they are difficult to replace without a major overhaul. This is a materials and design flaw. Also, my igniter cable was zip-tied to a bundle of wires inside the box and did not have enough give to reassemble and firm up the set screw (with 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the igniter exposed in the fire box). Therefore I had to cut the zip tie, free up the cable, assemble the firebox with igniter and set screw in place. This is more work than it should have been.

Try accessing & loosening the 6 screws on the hopper after the pit has been in use for 18 months. Q: why are there 6 screws on the bottom of the hopper & not a simple large wing nut? A: It wasn’t meant to be accessible & this fix is for an unexpected but common problem. The bottom of the hopper & the 6 screws are dusted & rusted together & cannot be opened unless the pit is new.

No cooking has been done on that grill. My grill that needed an igniter changed has been used because that makes fucking sense. EVERY screw i encountered might as well have been a tack weld. Because the garbage dollar general brand screws this company used INSIDE or immediately adjacent to THE IGNITER BOX that by design, gets up to 600 plus degrees are NOT serviceable. But it is eventually doable. Good luck, but put whatever you thought you were going to cook back in the freezer. Because you are going to have to run to the hardware store at least twice for new screws and a grinder cut off wheel.

I’ve had mine less than two years and use it on average 3 times a month and last night the igniter stopped working, so it’s more accurate to say anything can happen and more accurate to say, “Should your igniter go bad, order a new one from us and this is how you put it in......”
