      Shut up!!! I’ve been looking for a properly detailed video like this for months and the audacity and arrogance of your POINTLESS commentary is absolutely atrocious and disgustingly disrespectful!!!! If you don’t like it LEAVE!!!!! 🖕🖕🖕🖕 🖕

      Disrespecting people's videos is not only a blatant display of poor manners but also reveals an unsettling lack of empathy and understanding. Every video, regardless of its content or production quality, represents someone's effort, creativity, and personal expression. Deriding these works publicly is a cowardly act that diminishes the respect and civility that should underpin all human interactions. It undermines the constructive feedback that fosters growth and instead perpetuates a toxic environment where negativity thrives. Criticism can be delivered with respect and kindness; choosing otherwise only reflects a petty and immature character… if you don’t like it LEAVE!!! 🖕🖕🖕

    Bought one last year for hubby. He passed away. It sat in a closed garage until yesterday. I followed the instructions on burn out. All good. Then followed instructions on the first cook. One hour and temp never got to 400. Gauge on top never past 200. Followed instructions on turning off. Nothing cooled down afterwards. No fan blowing. Had to use oven to cook the bacon wrapped shrimp. Not happy at all. Thanks for this video. It's probably the fan and this pit never cooked a damn thing. Now I have to learn how to fix it.... I'm a subscriber now.

    So mine was opposite, auger wouldn’t spin so I replaced the motor. Auger still doesn’t spin after being replaced. But when I switch the fan plug with the auger plug the auger will spin but the fan will not. Does that mean I need a control panel replacement?

    I used my Pitboss smoker for 1 year, then moved and didn't use it for 9 months. Now, I cannot get the screen to turn on, or anything else,, EXCEPT, when I just plug it in, a code flashes for about 1 second - "7F1". What do I do with that?
    No screen, no auger, no fan, no heat.

    My pit boss lexington stopped working after 5 weeks of owning it. Customer service said it was the ingiter. Had to wait 11 days to receive the replacement. It's not the ingniter. The fan doesn't work. So now I'm on day 4 or waiting for that. Pit Boss says it could take 14 days to receive. Stay away from Pit Boss.

    The problem with mine is anytime I get to higher temps it takes forever to get to it and then once it does my hopper starts smoking and it’s clean as a whistle. Hate using a smoker now I’m done with it. I have the same out boss as in the video. I have grown to hate this thing.

      @@jaybruce6974 Glad it helped. I'm sure it was my problem at that time. I did not keep the inside clean and the problems increased to the point it became unusable. After keeping the inside cleaner the problem improved quite a bit. I think some variation on temperature is just part of it. I have one of the smallest size units . I think the larger the pitt the easier it is to control temp also.

      Per the manual.
      "Err" Error Code means,
      "Temperature probe wire not making connection."
      Solution is,
      Remove hopper access panel (see Electric Wire Diagram for diagram), and check for any damage to the Temperature Probe wires. Ensure Temperature Probe molex connectors are firmly connected and connected correctly to the Control Board.
