How to fix RevoAce Grill burner that will not light using igniter?

  Cassandra SandovalAug 15, 2025
  If the burner on your RevoAce Grill won't light with the igniter, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the LP gas tank valve is open and the regulator is securely attached. If the tank is low or empty, exchange, refill, or replace it. Check for gas leaks, and if detected, close the LP gas tank valve, wait 5 minutes, and follow the leak checking procedure. Also, clean any cooking residue from the wires or electrode with rubbing alcohol, and dry any wet components with a cloth. If the electrode is cracked or the wire is loose, disconnected, or shorting, replacement parts may be needed. Lastly, a bad igniter may also require replacement.

Why RevoAce Grill burner will not light with match?

  Kristen JonesAug 22, 2025
  If the burner on your RevoAce Grill won't light with a match, several factors could be at play. First, verify that the LP gas tank isn't empty; if it is, replace, refill, or exchange it. If the tank isn't empty, there might be an issue with gas flow, potentially requiring a check for a bent or kinked hose or an obstruction in the burner/venturi tube. Also, ensure the coupling nut and regulator are fully connected by hand-tightening them until a solid stop is reached. Confirm that the burner is properly engaged with the valve. Finally, inspect the venturi and burner ports for spider webs, insect nests, or clogs, and clean them if necessary.

  Flare-ups on your RevoAce Grill can be caused by grease buildup, excess fat in the meat you're grilling, or an excessive cooking temperature. To prevent flare-ups, regularly remove and clean all grill parts, trim excess fat from meat before grilling, and adjust the cooking temperature to a lower setting.

Why is the flame yellow or orange on my RevoAce GBC1729W?
- S
  Shannon HigginsAug 28, 2025
  A yellow or orange flame on your RevoAce Grill can occur for several reasons. If it's a new burner, residual manufacturing oils may be present; burn the grill for 15 minutes on high with the lid closed to resolve this. Other causes include spider webs or insect nests in the venturi, food residue or grease on the burners, or poor alignment of the valve to the burner/venturi tube. High or gusting winds and low LP gas can also cause this issue. Clean the venturi and burners, ensure proper alignment, avoid using the grill in high winds, and exchange, refill, or replace the LP gas tank if it's low.

  If you notice a sudden drop in gas flow or reduced flame height on your RevoAce Grill, the first thing to check is whether your LP gas tank is empty. If it is, replace or refill it. Alternatively, the overfilling prevention device might have been activated. To resolve this: 1. Turn the control knobs to the “OFF” position. 2. Wait 30 seconds, then try lighting the grill again. 3. If the flames remain low, reset the overfilling prevention device by: * Turning the control knob(s) to “OFF”. * Closing the LP gas tank valve. * Disconnecting the regulator. * Turning the control knobs to (HIGH). * Waiting 1 minute. * Turning the control knobs to “OFF”. * Reconnecting the regulator, ensuring not to fully open the valve during the leak check. * Light...

Function Description:

The device is an outdoor liquid propane (LP) gas barbecue grill designed for cooking food outdoors. It features multiple burners, cooking grids, heat plates, and a side burner for versatile cooking options. The grill is intended for use with a precision-filled standard LP gas tank with an Acme Type 1 external threaded valve connection. It includes a lid with a temperature gauge for monitoring cooking temperatures and a warming rack to keep food warm. The grill is designed for outdoor use only and should not be stored or operated in enclosed spaces.

Important Technical Specifications:

Fuel Type: Liquid Propane (LP) gas.
LP Gas Tank: Requires a 20 lb (9 kg) precision-filled standard LP gas tank with an Acme Type 1 external threaded valve connection (not included).
Inlet Pressure: Designed to operate at an inlet pressure of 11 inches water column.
Clearance: Minimum clearance from sides and back of unit to combustible construction is 36 inches (91.4 cm).
Side Burner Weight Limit: Maximum weight for side burner and side shelf is 33 lbs. Pots larger than 6 quarts in capacity could exceed this limit.
Assembly Time: Approximately one hour.
Dimensions (LP Gas Tank): 17.9 in. / 45.5 cm height.
Flame Conditions (Normal): Soft blue flames with yellow tips between 1 in. - 2 in. (25.4-50.8 mm) height.

Usage Features:

Outdoor Use Only: The grill is strictly for outdoor use and must not be operated in any building, garage, or other enclosed area.
LP Gas Tank Installation: The manual provides detailed steps for inserting and securing the LP gas tank, ensuring the tank valve faces the gas line connection.
Gas Connection: Instructions for connecting the regulator/hose assembly to the LP gas tank are provided, emphasizing the importance of checking for debris and tightening the knob clockwise until it stops. Disconnection involves turning the knob counterclockwise.
Lighting Procedure:
- Main Burners: Requires opening the lid, ensuring control knobs are in the "OFF" position, connecting the LP gas tank, turning the tank valve to "OPEN," then pushing and turning the control knob to "HIGH." If ignition doesn't occur within 5 seconds, the user must turn the knob to "OFF," wait 5 minutes for gas to clear, and repeat. A lighting rod is included for manual ignition with a lit match if the igniter fails.
- Side Burner: Similar lighting procedure to main burners, but specifically states to open the lid and ensure the control knob is in the "OFF" position before turning to "HIGH."
Flame Control: Control knobs allow adjustment of flame height for desired cooking temperatures.
Temperature Gauge: Integrated into the lid for monitoring internal grill temperature.
Warming Rack: Provides an area to keep cooked food warm.

- Unattended Operation: Do NOT leave the grill unattended, especially when cooking fatty meats or with the lid closed for too long.
- Grease Fires: Instructions for handling grease fires (turn off gas, close lid, do NOT use water; use dry chemical extinguisher, dirt, sand, or baking soda).
- Overfilling Prevention Device: If gas flow suddenly drops, it may indicate the overfilling prevention device has been activated, and steps are provided to reset it.
- California Proposition 65 Warnings: Alerts users to potential exposure to lead (from brass materials) and benzene (from product operation), advising hand washing after handling and directing users to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov for more information.

Maintenance Features:

Regular Cleaning: The grill should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected on a regular basis. All cleaning and maintenance should be performed when the grill is cool and the fuel supply is disconnected.
Surface Cleaning: Surfaces can be cleaned with mild dishwashing detergent or baking soda mixed with water. For stubborn areas, a citrus-based degreaser and nylon scrubbing brush can be used, followed by rinsing and air drying.
Main Burner Cleaning:
- Requires disconnecting the LP gas tank and removing cooking grids and heat plates.
- Burners are removed by fasteners, lifted from the gas valve orifice, and the wire from the spark electrode is disconnected.
- Venturi tubes should be cleaned with a small bottle brush or compressed air.
- Burner surfaces should be cleaned of food residue and dirt. Clogged ports can be cleaned with a stiff wire (e.g., paper clip).
- Burners should be inspected for damage (cracks or holes) and replaced if necessary.
- Reinstallation involves ensuring correct positioning of the gas valve orifice inside the burner/venturi tube and checking the spark electrode.
Side Burner Cleaning: Similar steps to main burner cleaning, involving removal of the side burner grid and burner, cleaning the venturi tube and burner surface, and checking for clogged ports or damage.
Hose Inspection: The hose should be inspected before each use for abrasion, wear, cuts, or leaks and replaced if evidence of damage is found.
Storage: Before storing, the LP gas tank valve should be turned to "CLOSED," control knobs to "OFF," and the tank disconnected. All surfaces should be cleaned, and burner(s) and cooking grid(s) lightly coated with cooking oil to prevent rusting. If storing indoors, the LP tank must be disconnected and stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area with its protective cap. If storing outdoors, the grill should be covered with a grill cover.
Troubleshooting Guide: A comprehensive table is provided to address common issues such as burners not lighting, irregular flame patterns, flare-ups, and persistent grease fires, offering possible causes and prevention/cure steps.
