You don't have to unscrew all that to make it work. Just disconnect from the bottom , close to the fan there's 2 connections that go to the sensors. And you can jump each connection, and it'll work
I purchased replacement damper prior to finding your video. How difficult is it to install the replacement damper. I mean, how much of the 560 will I need to disassemble?
I’m not sure. Both of mine were floor models I got on clearance fully assembled. When I removed the old damper I just too out the fan, reached in and pulled it out, no harm no foul as it was already toast. Good luck with the new one.
I've used mine five times, had loaded with full to slow cooking temperature 180. For 10 hours cooking time .3.5 hours into set time , alarm went off fan didn't work anymore. Bought new fan , replace still don't work. Be to find out the problem found this video.thanks
How long after you cut air do you have hot coals? My first time after third burn .. 12 hrs later i still had warm coals that i did not catch till i dropped the hopper
Never had that happen. After a cook I put the steel shut off slides in, after about 2 hrs it's usually cool enough to put back in my garage where I store it.
Really interested in this, mine melted as well. I was placing an order for a replacement flap but have no idea how to put the new one in

How has your replacement flap worked out? Just got an 800 series and wondering if I should do this mod.
