PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY
My cooker
won’t reach
or stay at the
temp I have
set on the
GURU. (Cont’d)
My GURU is
attached and
running but
my cooker
won’t reach
the desired
temp. (Cont’d)
FAN isn’t running or making
any noise.
It’s possible debris has fallen into
the FAN nozzle and is keeping
the FAN from turning. Unplug
the FAN and remove the debris
and see if the FAN starts working
again.
Make sure the FAN is not
melted. If the FAN is left on the
cooker after a cook the heat
from the cooker can travel back
into the FAN nozzle and melt
the plastic blades which keeps
the FAN from spinning. If the
FAN is melted you will need
to purchase a replacement at
www.bbqguru.com.
The OPEN LID DETECT feature
is on which causes the GURU
to wait to calculate all of the
air introduced into the cooker
before turning the FAN back on
after the lid is open. In this case
just wait for the GURU to begin
cycling again or turn OPEN LID
DETECT off.
My GURU is
overshooting
my desired PIT
TEMP.
Ice may have formed in the FAN
motor. This happens in very cold
conditions where condensation
from inside the cooker drains
into the FAN and then freezes
during an off cycle. In this
case remove the FAN and let it
warm up and it should begin
functioning normally again.
Too much air is getting to the
fire and causing the PIT TEMP
to spike.
Close the damper on your FAN
to 1/2 open and wait 5-10min
and see if the PIT TEMP starts to
go down towards your desired
temp.
Close the exhaust damper on
your cooker to only 1/4-1/8
of the way open then wait
5-10min and see if the PIT TEMP
starts to go down towards your
desired temp.
