Possible Causes
Lid not detected as closed, Hopper lid switch open (if equipped), Active error code not cleared, Control board firmware glitch
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the grill is cool and stable before troubleshooting.
Steps to resolve no-start condition:
- 1. Check for active errors: Look at the display for any error messages. Clear them according to the manual (often by cycling power or pressing a reset/confirm button).
- 2. Verify lid position: Close the main lid firmly. Some Twin Eagles pellet grills will not start with the lid open.
- 3. Inspect lid and hopper switches: If your model has lid or hopper safety switches, ensure they are aligned and actuated when closed. Adjust or replace if faulty.
- 4. Power reset: Unplug the grill for 5 minutes, then plug back in and attempt to start again.
- 5. Firmware update or board replacement: If the grill still refuses to start with all interlocks satisfied, the control board may need a firmware update or replacement by a technician.
