Traeger wasn't working after I moved to a new apartment. Turns out my inductor fan was jammed. After this video I was able to fix it in a couple minutes time. Thanks!!

I cleared the problem by vacuuming out the igniter. I placed the vacuum hose in the firebox and sealed the air with paper towels and letting the vac run for about 3 minutes. Problem fixed. Problem most likely caused by moist dusty pellets building up a residue. Lesson learned. Keep your pellets and grill clean.

You solved my problem with this video. Wiring impinged on the fan blade after hotrod replacement. Corrected wire run, hand spun the blades, and fire in the hole! Thank you. You can fix anything on KZbin.

Pulled my Traeger smoker out after a long MN winter and auger fed pellets, but would not light entirely in firebox. I switched hot rod few years ago and was so easy, I figured (hoped) it was just that. Replaced it, but issue persisted. Found this tutorial and it was the fan. Simply stuck, gave it a push and fired right up. Thanks for this quick tutorial. Super helpful.

You are the best! Weeds grew up in the induction fan. I never noticed them because of cover when we would mow! I feel dumb! Smoker is running great! lol

Thank you ! Thank you! thank you! My grill had heat but no fan. I checked the fan and found Black Widow webs all around it impeding any movement; Black Widow webs are incredibly strong! I cleaned out the webs and kapowwie - it fired right up! Remember folks, clean you grill after every use ! Thanks again!

After about 2000 uses, my treager needed a new burn pot, it had rust holes so the air was above the pellets. Took 20 min and $20 to fix it.

First time out and it wouldn't start. LEr error. Maybe a good idea not to ship these with the tools in the feeder. Probably something jammed. What a waste. Thanks for saving us all 10 cents! I guess I'll just chuck this prepped rack of ribs in the garbage.
