IGNITION SYSTEM OPERATIONS

The igniter supplies a spark to the igniter electrode
assembly. Whether you are performing routine
maintenance or a troubleshooting check on the ignition
system, read the following to keep your ignition system
working properly.
m WARNING: All gas controls and supply
valves should be in the OFF position.
If the igniter fails to ignite your Q grill, you will need to
®
pinpoint where the problem is occurring: with the gas flow
or with the ignition system. Begin by attempting to match
light your burner. Refer to "BURNER IGNITION—Lighting
with a Match." If match lighting is successful, the problem
lies in the ignition system.
MAINTAINING THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION
SYSTEM (Q 1000 & Q 2000)
® ®
Check that both the white (1) and black (2) ignition
•
wires are attached properly.
• Verify that the igniter button pushes in, clicks and
returns to the out position.
MAINTAINING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION
SYSTEM (Q 1200 & Q 2200)
® ®
• Verify that the AAA battery (alkaline only) is in good
condition and is installed correctly (3). Some batteries
have a plastic protective wrap around them. This
plastic must be removed before installing battery. Do
not confuse this plastic with the battery label.
• Make sure that both igniter wires are properly
attached to the igniter module. Black wire to black
terminal (4), white wire to white terminal (5).
• Make sure the electronic igniter button is working by
listening for clicking and looking for sparks at burner.
