Is your grill acting up? Here are some signs to look out for:
• The grill won’t get hotter than 250 to 400°F.
• The grill is hard to light.
• The more burners you light, the lower the flames get.
If you're experiencing these issues, your regulator valve might be the culprit. But don’t worry—this can be easily fixed.
Here’s a step-by-step guide, and for more detailed instructions, check out this YouTube video on resetting the regulator.
1. Open the Hood: Ensure there's no gas buildup inside the grill.
2. Turn Off All Burners: Double-check that every burner is off. Close the propane tank shutoff valve by twisting it clockwise.
3. Remove the Propane Tank Hose: Unscrew the hose as if you were changing the tank. You might hear a slight hiss as excess pressure releases. Wait about 30 seconds to let the regulator reset.
4. Reconnect the Hose: Reattach the hose securely and slowly reopen the propane valve a quarter turn. Opening it too quickly can trip the regulator again.
5. Fully Open the Valve: Slowly turn the valve all the way open. Turn on each burner one at a time, ensuring there’s a flame before moving to the next. You should see higher flames now. Turn off the burners one by one.
6. Close the Propane Tank Valve: Once done, close the valve again.
If these steps don’t resolve the issue, consider the following:
• Ensure the knob’s start position is “low” instead of “high”.
• Check if the thermometer is giving a false reading.
• Verify there’s enough gas in the propane tank.
• Ensure the hose/regulator is securely attached to the tank.
