Troubleshooting if the grill will not light #
If you cannot hear the igniter clicking, the batter may need to be replaced. Please ask our team for assistance.
If the igniter is working but the grill does night light, the propane tank may have gone into safety mode. This is a common problem with a simple solution:
- Turn off the propane tank using the knob at the top of the tank.
- Then ensure all the burners are turned to the off position.
