Thank you, AlaskaGranny! This solved my problem. I was telling my wife that this was one of the clearest TH-cam videos I have seen. Great job and thanks again :)
Alaska Granny I was given this exact grill from one of my clients and haven't used it yet. I had trouble finding a video regarding this grill, and my igniter is broken . Good thing I found out about that whole to manually turn it on with a match .thanks for the info your a life saver. By any chance do you know which igniter will be for this grill? I found different ones in eBay but they have different model numbers. THANKS IN ADVANCE and GREAT VIDEO
+MrZACATECANO100 I am glad you are enjoying your grill. I love mine, and it is indestructable. You should enjoy this grill for a long time. Nice you got it for a gift. I do not know which ignitor would fit your grill. Do you still have the manual? It may list replacement part numbers. Maybe call the Weber Grill Company and ask. Good luck with your Weber grill.
Nice video; but I checked with Weber re: emergency lighting. In order for the burners to ignite, you must turn ON tank and one burner knob before presenting the flame to the gas.
I have that same grill and didn't know about the hole to manually light it. Thanks for the tip. Now when my igniter goes bad I won't have to lose time figuring out how to light it.
Thanks for the help 🙏🏼 couldn’t get my grill going, watched the video and saw it was because one of the igniter wires wasn’t connected properly. All good now, thanks again.
Question.. I have a Weber summit gold and everything was working okay until tonight.. everything starts up fine but the first two burners, of the temp control Knobs are switched from high to low, the burners lose the flame and go off? The other four burners don’t have this problem but the first two, only work while set on high. The electrode is lose with the collector box being open on top. Could this be the issue? Or is it a propane air flow issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated
The only time I had trouble getting the burners to light was when I turned on the burners before I turned on the propane tank. Close all the burners, turn off the tank. Now turn on the tank, and then turn on the burners. Hope that is a all you need.
have been watching your channel for a long time--I enjoy it and learn from it---than pass on info to my daughter and her family (she loves your moose vids) thanks for sharing
First I would try taking off the propane tank and reattaching the hose. Sometimes if you start over, things work. Make sure the burners are off, and turn the tank on. Then turn on the burners. If you have the burners on before the tank, sometimes it won't work. If you are sure the gas is flowing, check the burners to see if they are clogged. Remove the grates and look. Remove any visible clogs. Then, turn on the gas and try to light directly at the burner with a long lighter. Be careful with this one! Hopefully, one of these tricks will work.
AlaskaGranny I've done all that. It seems like the gas is stopping at the control knob....? I can hear it flow when I turn the tank on. checked for leaks, nothing...
You are welcome. Thanks for watching. Check out more of my videos on how to use the Weber gas grill at my website. Here is a link. www.alaskagranny.com/weber-grills/
My weber is 30 years old. Still going strong. Once in a while a taste metal rust in my meat pattys but still good. I'm just a cheap fcuk to buy a new BBQ :) 😭
If rust is on a small area, you should be able to remove the rust from the racks, and eliminate the taste. I would scrub it with a bit of steel wool, rub it with some oil, and turn the grill on high. Not an expert, just what I would try. If your racks are too far gone, maybe you can buy replacement racks. I found these on Amazon. Maybe they would fit your Weber Grill. amzn.to/2q6GmF4 My Weber is old, too. No reason to get a new one if you don't need one.
this helped me so much during a bbq with my girls, found out a week later that my battery died in the ignitor, lol....thank you for showing the manual lighting....

+AlaskaGranny thank you very much I will call weber since mine didn't include the manual.thanks again.
I've got one of the newer webers and they're igniters are just batteries!! It's awesome! Thanks for the great videos :)
Hillbillyhunter Kohring I have had other grills with batteries. That is a great tip to check if your igniter isn't working.
THANK YOU ALASKA GRANNY!!!!!! you just saved my butt and these tri tip steaks,thank you very much from north hollywood,CA
You are welcome. Glad to save steaks!
Nice video; but I checked with Weber re: emergency lighting. In order for the burners to ignite, you must turn ON tank and one burner knob before presenting the flame to the gas.
Thank you! Your comment saved my day

***** Glad to help. Hopefully, you won't ever need it.
@@AlaskaGranny 8 years later the igniter finally went bad. Using the lighting hole until the new part comes in. Thanks once again for the tip.

Hi! Thanks for the info. How old is your barbecue?
My Weber grill is at least 10 or 12 years old. It gets lots of use, even in Alaska winters, and still works great.
Nicely explained. Thanks for helping with my dinner today!!!
You are welcome. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Thank you for video as I ended up finally realizing the igniter wire and housing was loose. I simply slid it back into the grooves, and voila!
Glad you found a simple fix. That is always nice!
Thank you for the tips. I just started my grill for the 4th of July festivities using your techniques
.
Glad this worked for you. Happy grilling.
Thank you! Didn’t see that step anywhere in the manual 😅
Happy to help!
This helped me tonight, thanks!
Glad to hear it!

Thank you Alaska G. Fixer girl and good looking.
Glad this fix helped you.
Great video!!!
Glad this helped you.
How do I start my weber spirit grill? it has a smart regulator.
Sorry, I don't have one of those. Perhaps you can contact Weber at their toll free number.
800-446-1071
That's quite a view from your deck
Yes, I am very blessed!
so how do you fix it when it wont light with lighter? I have a full tank of propane, still no flame.
First I would try taking off the propane tank and reattaching the hose. Sometimes if you start over, things work. Make sure the burners are off, and turn the tank on. Then turn on the burners. If you have the burners on before the tank, sometimes it won't work. If you are sure the gas is flowing, check the burners to see if they are clogged. Remove the grates and look.

AlaskaGranny I've done all that. It seems like the gas is stopping at the control knob....? I can hear it flow when I turn the tank on. checked for leaks, nothing...
I guess you can try to call the manufacturer of your particular grill. Best of luck.
👍Awesome! Thank you. 💝
You are welcome!
I want to go to Alaska!!
I love Alaska!

Correct procedure is turn your propane gas on slow all the way,then turn your burner on hi,then push the igniter
