    How to fix a Pit Boss PB260PSP2 Grill fire pot that won't light?
    • A
      Angel GatesAug 16, 2025
      If your Pit Boss Grill's fire pot won't light, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the auger is primed, especially if it's the first time using the grill or the hopper was completely emptied. Follow the Hopper Priming Procedure. Also, check the fire pot for ash build-up or obstructions, and ensure the fan is working properly with no blocked air intake. Follow the Care and Maintenance instructions. If the igniter has failed, follow the Manual Start-up Procedure, and contact Customer Service for assistance or a replacement part.

    Why are there no power lights on my Pit Boss PB260PSP2 control board?
    • J
      jasonwhiteAug 22, 2025
      If the Pit Boss Grill isn't powering on and the control board lights aren't on, first, make sure the unit is plugged into a working power source and reset the breaker. Also, ensure the GFCI is a minimum 10 Amp service. Check that all wire connections are firmly connected and dry. If that doesn't work, press the Power Button to ensure it glows blue, indicating a power connection, and turn the Temperature Control Dial to a temperature setting. As a last resort, the control board may be faulty and need replacement. Contact Customer Service for a replacement part.

    Why won't my Pit Boss PB260PSP2 achieve or maintain a stable temperature?
    • J
      Joseph ReidAug 26, 2025
      If your Pit Boss Grill is not achieving or maintaining a stable temperature, start by checking the fire pot for ash build-up or obstructions and ensure the fan is working properly with no blocked air intake. Also, check the hopper to ensure the fuel level is sufficient and the wood pellets are of good quality, without obstructions in the feed system. If these steps don't resolve the issue, check the status of the temperature probe. Once all the above steps have been done, start the grill, set temperature to SMOKE and wait for 10 minutes. Check that the flame produced is bright and vibrant.

    Why is my Pit Boss PB260PSP2 Grill producing excess or discolored smoke?
    • R
      Robin SinghAug 28, 2025
      If your Pit Boss Grill is producing excess or discolored smoke, it could be due to grease build-up, poor wood pellet quality, a blocked fire pot, or insufficient air intake for the fan. Follow the Care and Maintenance instructions to address grease build-up. Remove moist wood pellets from the hopper and replace them with dry ones. Clear the fire pot of ash and debris, and ensure the fan is working properly with no blocked air intake. Follow the Hopper Priming Procedure.

    • J
      Jennifer WilliamsAug 30, 2025
      If your Pit Boss Grill is displaying an "ErL" error code, it indicates that the grill failed to perform the start-up cycle. Check the proper positioning of cooking components, and ensure the hopper has sufficient fuel without obstructions. Also, check the grill probe for accuracy and cleanliness, and verify the igniter's positioning and heating. In extreme cold, try a second start. Ensure the fan is working properly. Follow Care and Maintenance instructions if dirty.

      Kristine GomezSep 5, 2025
      If your Pit Boss Grill is displaying a flashing temperature on the LCD screen, this indicates that the grill temperature is below 65°C / 150°F. Check the hopper for sufficient fuel and ensure there are no obstructions in the feed system. Also, inspect the grill temperature probe and the fire pot for ash build-up or obstructions. Additionally, verify that the fan is working properly and the air intake is not blocked. Ensure the auger motor is functioning correctly and there are no blockages in the auger tube.
