How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure grill is cool and unplugged before removing the controller.
- Factory reset: Refer to your specific Camp Chef model manual for the controller reset procedure (often involves holding specific buttons while powering on). Perform a full reset to restore default P-settings.
- Power cycle: Unplug the grill for at least 5 minutes, then plug back in and re-test.
- Check for moisture: Inspect the control panel for signs of water intrusion or condensation. Dry gently with a soft cloth and allow time to air dry.
- Update or replace controller: If the error persists, the controller may be faulty. Replace with a compatible Camp Chef main control board, transferring each connector one at a time.
