Earlier this evening. I went to start the FEC100. When i did the pellets did not light.
After 20-25 minutes, none of the pellets in the pot were even warm. okay i took a few matches and lit a few pellets.
The FEC100 kept tossing pellets into the pot.
The temp goto 300. I knew that was bad because i had it set at 244. I shut it off. Let it sit for 20-25 minutes.
Came back, turned on teh cooker. controls are fine. Press start, the control panel starts buzzing. Turned it off. tried it again. Still buzzing. Waited 45-60 minutes until everyting was cooled off, buzzed again.
Last time this happened my wiring caught fire and i was out of commission for over a week. I cant let this happen this time I am catering a wedding Saturday. I have to have the cooker working.
I suppose i should also add that from the time I received teh cooker the Cooking Time buton doesnt work nor does the brisket button. All the other buttons work. I have gone through tech support they told me to take off the whole thing and tighen a bolt. Finally was able to try that - didnt help. So now they will finally send me the control board i should have received earlier, hopefully not too late.
BTW, the cooker worked fine last night when i cooked 12 butts. Cleaned out the pot today too.
UGGGHHHH
Please work in the morning, please. In the meantime I am letting someone down for lunch today.
