Do you get an error messsage that looks like LEr? If a Traeger can't reach 125 for ten consecutive minutes, it will automatically shut down. Try starting at a higher temperature than "Smoke" if it's cold outside.

SOURCE: Err message on my Traeger

I had the same problem; I talked to Traeger talked to their rep and he walked me through fixing the problem. There are two wires leading from the temperature probe, these lead back to the thermostat digital controller. With the unit unplugged, unscrew the two screws holding the temperature controller in place. Slowly and carefully pull out, and check that both wires are running into the controller. If either is disconnected, strip a little more wire off the loosened wire, put back in hole and tighten the wire back down. That was the trick for my grill. Reassemble and reconnect power and test it out.

I keep getting an error msg. When it finally starts, it shuts off with the Err

Hi Terry,

This may help... ...from Treager's site FAQ

"My Unit Goes Out On Smoke
  1. Open the cooking chamber lid and remove cooking grill, angled drip pan and U-shaped firepot cover. Look and see if there is a large accumulation of pellet ash in and around the firepot. If there is, it will need to be cleaned out. Do this ONLY WHEN THE GRILL IS TOTALLY COLD! Replace U-shaped firepot cover, angled drip pan and cooking grills and resume cooking/smoking process.
  2. If this does not remedy the problem, please contact the Traeger Service Department."
From my personal experience, cleaning out the pellet ash is needed when the smoker will not hold a high temperature regardless of the thermostat setting.

In your case, the fire pot may be packed with pellet ash and pellets from the auger jamming.

Good luck.

Why would I buy another traeger? I had a problem and you were totally unhelpful. I will buy another brand name for christmas -not an $800 traeger. You lost a customer.

This is unfortunate. I have a Traeger Junior that I have had for over two years and I've been totally happy with it. I've also found Traeger customer support to be excellent and very helpful. I wonder if you just posted a question here or did you go to the Traeger website at www.traegergrills.com. If you didn't go directly to Traeger then you may not have gone to the right place. Don't know if Traeger monitors Fixya regularly or not.

I'm getting an "Err" message on my digital temperature reading. The grill starts up but then shuts down when the "Err" message comes up.

Remove your grill, inner shield and outer dip plate from the Traeger. Start the Traeger in smoke mode. Observe to see if the blower fan is working. Is the auger turning? Are the pellets dry? Condensation can make the pellets swell and cause plug ups.
