Controller displays PROBE error when using the integrated food probe
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Food probe not fully inserted into jack, Damaged or cut food probe cable, Probe tip shorted by moisture, Failed probe input on controller
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep hands clear of hot grates and food when adjusting the probe.
- Check connection: Ensure the Yoder food probe is fully inserted into the probe jack on the controller. Remove and reinsert firmly.
- Inspect cable: Look along the entire length of the probe cable for cuts, kinks, or melted sections. Replace the probe if any damage is found.
- Clean probe tip: Wipe the metal probe tip with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Moisture or heavy grease can cause erratic readings.
- Test with another probe: If available, plug in a known-good Yoder-compatible food probe. If the error clears, the original probe is faulty. If the error persists, the controller probe input may be defective and the controller should be replaced.
