Thanks man. Had no idea if that electrode has carbon buildup it wouldn't spark. Makes sense though the way you explained it. It's like a spark plug. I scraped it with my knife real quick and it's sparking. I'll clean it up for real now. Good stuff man.

Good, through video. I hear no fuel flowing but I tried it both with both an old and a new propane tank. I'm thinking there's something wrong with the hose or regulator but thanks for helping me get on the right path to figuring it out.

Just bought a new fire pit. It lit up for about 5-10 seconds the first time. Was a used propane tank so I figure it was just empty. Put a full tank in. Same thing happened tonight and then I couldn’t get it re-lit at all. Any suggestions as twice it appeared to light and the went out? Great video. Thanks!

Hey I have a firepit that doesn’t stay lit also. It’s a Tacklife brand. There’s another yt video about it that we have to hold the dial pushed in for 20-30 seconds after it lights and then you can lower the flame and let the knob out. Something to do with the thermocouple? Idk. I just watched the yt video and am going outside to try it now.

Okay i watched your video. Last night My brother-in-law put my firepit together and when he turned ot on it lit right away several times. I put the lava rocks in and today it wouldn't work. It sparks but won't turn on. The tank is full and fully on. I moved the rocks away from the igniter. Tried cleaning the ignitor but couldn't get to it. I even took all the rocks out and tried and just a spark again. I don't know whatelse to try.
