    Why won't the burners light on my Weber Summit S-470 Grill, or why is the flame weak?
    • A
      Ashlee McgeeAug 27, 2025
      If the burners on your Weber Grill do not light, have a small flickering flame in the HI position, or if the barbecue temperature only reaches 250° to 300° in the HI position, the excess flow safety device may have activated. To reset it, turn off all burner control knobs and the cylinder valve. Disconnect the regulator from the cylinder. Turn burner control knobs to HI and wait at least one minute. Then, turn the burner control knobs to OFF. Reconnect the regulator to the cylinder and slowly turn the cylinder valve on.

      If the burner on your Weber Grill does not light or the flame is low in the HI position, first, check if the LP fuel is low or empty and refill the LP cylinder if needed. Next, inspect the fuel hose for any bends or kinks and straighten it. If the burner still doesn't light, try cleaning the burners. Also, make sure to hold the control knob in for two seconds after snapping the igniter and seeing the orange flame from the burner lighting tube.

    • T
      Tony CarrollSep 5, 2025
      If the inside of your Weber Grill lid appears to be peeling, it's likely baked-on grease that has turned to carbon and is flaking off. This is not a defect. Clean the lid thoroughly.

    Why does my Weber Summit S-470 Grill lose heat in cold weather?
    • T
      Trevor BoydSep 2, 2025
      If your Weber Grill loses heat when cooking in cold weather (10°C/50°F or colder), it may be due to frost or ice on the outside of the LP cylinder. This indicates that the liquid propane is vaporizing too slowly to supply the burners. Turn off the burner control knobs and the LP cylinder, then replace it with a spare LP cylinder to resume cooking.
