At the same time, remove the rear access panel as seen in the video below to inspect the auger motor.įollow this video on how to install a new ceramic igniter into your RECTEQ ER-3: Overheatingįirst off, please note, as I discussed above in the intro, if you have an older REC TEC branded product without WiFi functionality for overheating, your grill will display the ER-1 error code. With all the grates, grease tray etc removed, you will be able to see the burn pot and to see if pellets are able to drop into the burn pot. While an auger jam on a pellet grill/smoker can be caused by a foreign object entering the hopper, the most likely cause is rain getting into the hopper and causing wet pellets to expand in the auger tube. If the fan is running to work out if its the auger or the igniter which is the issue, you are going to need to remove all of the cooking racks, grease tray and heat deflector from above the burn pot.

However, you can see the fan and if the blades are running by looking up under the access grate below the hopper. You’ll know if the fan is running as you’ll hear it.

Well, the easiest one of those potential causes for the ER-2 error code to discount is a broken fan.

It could be an auger jam or a failed auger motor….

First off, let’s discount an empty hopper of pellets shall we. Ok, so the meaning of this error code is universal no matter what model of RECTEQ you own, whether its an older model without WiFi or one of the latest models with WiFi, the issue is the fire cannot be established.īut what’s the cause of the issue? Well, this is where the limited number of error codes on a RECTEQ isn’t ideal, as the reason could be a couple of issues. See if the hair dryer runs consistently without cutting out.

To do this, get another portable appliance that pulls quite a bit of power to test the GFCI outlet, a hair dryer would be a good example. However, you also want to check that the GFCI outlet is working correctly. Second, if you are using an extension cord, to discount it as the issue, try and connect your grill directly to the external GFCI outlet on your property. First, inspect your power cable/extension cord for any obvious signs of damage. If you have experienced a loss of power to your RECTEQ, but you know your property still has power, then you need to do a little investigating. ER-1: Loss Of Powerįirst off, please note, as I discussed above in the intro, if you have an older REC TEC branded product without WiFi functionality for loss of power, your grill will display the ER-3 error code. Just to make this a little more complicated, if you own a Bullseye with a control panel, even though your grill does not have WiFi, its error code meanings match that of the other WiFi-enabled RECTEQ products. However, the ER-3 error code on a modern RECTEQ branded product actually means the grill has overheated.

Likewise, the ER-3 error code on a non-WiFi REC TEC means there has been a power failure. However, the ER-1 error code on a more modern RECTEQ branded product (with WiFi) means there has been a power failure. IMPORTANT: The meanings of the error codes in this RECTEQ video from 2016 are only applicable to legacy grills without the more modern WiFi control boardsįor instance, an ER-1 error code on a previous generation REC TEC branded model without WiFi means the grill overheated. Therefore, the first thing you need to do is understand which error code meaning is applicable to your specific RECTEQ model. However, it started to get even more complicated when I realised that depending on the specific RECTEQ model, the error code will mean different things. However, the more I thought about it, fewer error codes is not necessarily a good thing, as one code could cover a couple of different separate issues. Why? Well, a RECTEQ pellet grill/smoker will only display one of three error codes, either ER-1, ER-2 and ER-3.
