Display shows LID OPEN even when the lid is closed; grill may limit temperature or pause feed.

Safety first: Turn OFF and unplug the grill before adjusting switches or wiring.

• Verify lid closure: Ensure no tools, probes, or grates are preventing the lid from closing fully.
• Locate lid sensor: Depending on model, Timberwolf grills may use a magnetic reed switch or mechanical micro-switch near the lid hinge or front lip.
• Check alignment: If a magnet is used, confirm it lines up directly with the reed switch when the lid is closed. Adjust the magnet or switch bracket as needed.
• Inspect wiring: Follow the lid switch wires to the control board, checking for breaks or pinched sections.
• Test the switch: Use a multimeter to check continuity with the lid open and closed. Replace the Timberwolf Lid Switch Assembly if readings are incorrect.
• Reset and test: After repair, plug in the grill and confirm that the LID OPEN message clears when the lid is closed.
