Temperature display jumps erratically or fluctuates rapidly without actual temperature changes.

Safety first: Unplug the smoker before working on the sensor wiring.

Steps to stabilize readings:

• Reseat sensor connector: Access the control board and unplug/replug the sensor connector.
• Inspect cable routing: Ensure the sensor cable is not tightly bundled with power wires; reroute if necessary to reduce interference.
• Check for damage: Look for cuts or kinks in the sensor cable. Replace the sensor if damaged.
• Test with external thermometer: Compare readings to verify if the issue is display-only or actual temperature swings.
