Problem with Smoker

[Gizmo]

One sure way of always keeping a minimum opening on the vent is to run the meat probe cable through one of the vent openings.  It will prevent you from accidently bumping it all the way closed.

I never posted my solution for my problem.  Bradley sent me a new front control pcs (the black pcs with the legs and the slider).  They also sent me an high temp switch.  I just change the front control pcs and that fixed her.  It was getting some moisture and shorting out.

Thanks for the update. It's helps to know the outcome of a problem, and how it was solved.

If the moisture was coming from the cabinet, try opening the vent a little more to allow the moisture to escape. Also I have applied a tip another member had posted, and raised the front end of my BS a 1/4" to ensure that what ever extra moisture collects in the cabinet, it will flow towards the back and not the front.
