I just received a free traeger (pro model) in good shape, this helps me troubleshoot and test thanks. What about testing the other fan? How would you be able to tell if there is something wrong with that one (the smaller fan)
I got the same model I found on the side of the road I’m gonna replace the fan guessing that’s why it was on the side of the road but it’s also missing that bottom grill cover piece to protect the wires etc do you guys sell that bottem piece ? Thanks
And old friend gave me this bbq050 treager. It starts a fan but no auger movement. I'm not sure about the hot rod, did see one but didn't know of this item... I disconnected the auger and it moves freely (i emptied pellets B4 anything). I did enjoy this 055 vid. Mine appears to be older, the recipe book says 2008.just a clue Thanks for the help so far !!
On mine it’s not getting past 350. I have the pro 34. The fan works, it ignites and gets going but won’t go past 350. I cleaned it out and replaced it with all new pellets. No luck. Any ideas you can think of what it could be?
@@meefthepotatoe4363 not sure. But if it's been sitting and not in use what the wd-40 or other lubricants do is just loosen up the fan to get going. Then just monitor it.
Me too I just turned the fan and I could feel something stuck around the shaft after I turned it when it was off a few times it was nice and free. I sprayed a little WD40 on it too. Turned it on and it worked again!

Did you ever get an answer to this? I got a second hand one as well for free and it is also missing this piece
@@unclefreddy2009 no never got an answer 🤔 I’m just gonna probably just modify a cover for it
On my pellet grill the pellets pile up on startup and then it catches fire. It causes a fire. What could that be?

Buy a Weber kettle
Where you located KCMO ???
Would love to see how to replace the auger motor in this model
Why does my temperature have a N next it like N86
Often times those fans will start working fine spraying WD-40 on the shaft
It worked! Thanks🎉
Would this spray of wd-40 be like a temp fix ?

Mine was also just stuck. It needed the slightest touch to get going

How can I test my fan with a multimeter
