Why won't my Pit Boss LEXINGTON PB500LXW1 Grill achieve or maintain a stable temperature?

  Kimberly CarterAug 20, 2025
  If your Pit Boss Grill isn't maintaining a stable temperature, several factors could be at play. Start by checking the fire pot for ash build-up or obstructions and ensure the fan is working correctly with no blocked air intake. Also, make sure there's enough fuel and that the wood pellets are of good quality, without any obstructions in the feed system. Finally, inspect the Grill Probe for any dirt. After checking these, start the grill, set the temperature to SMOKE, wait 10 minutes, and check that the flame is bright and vibrant.

  If the fire pot in your Pit Boss Grill won't light, begin by ensuring the auger is primed, especially if it's the first use or the hopper was emptied. If not primed, follow the Hopper Priming Procedure. Check if the auger motor is jammed by turning the unit on to SMOKE and visually confirming that the auger is dropping pellets into the fire pot. Inspect the igniter by feeling for heat above the fire pot and ensuring it protrudes approximately 13mm / 0.5 inches into the fire pot. Lastly, check the fire pot for ash build-up or obstructions and ensure the fan is working correctly with unblocked air intake. If problems persist, contact Customer Care.

  If there are no power lights on the control board of your Pit Boss Grill, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the Temperature Control Dial is not off; press the Power Button to confirm it glows blue, indicating a power connection, and then set the Temperature Control Dial to a temperature. Also, verify the unit is correctly plugged into a working power source and reset the breaker. Check that the GFCI is a minimum 10 Amp service, and all wire connections are firmly connected and dry. Another potential cause is a blown fuse on the control board, which requires manual replacement after checking for a broken or blackened wire.
