How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the grill before accessing internal wiring.

Steps to diagnose:

  • Observe behavior: Change the set temperature and listen for changes in auger cycling and fan speed. If there is no change, the board may not be sending commands.
  • Check wiring: Ensure all motor and fan connectors are firmly attached to the control board.
  • Power cycle: Unplug the grill for 5–10 minutes, then plug back in and test again.
  • Replace control board: If outputs remain unresponsive, replace the control board with the correct Z Grills part for your model.
