The ITC, or Intelligent Temperature Control system on your Grill is 2 way logic system with
microprocessor technology. In the interest of protecon from power surges and electrical shorts, the
ITC ulizes a 5 Amp, 120 Volt Fast‐Blow fuse*. This simple and inexpensive part can be easily replaced
with the following instrucons.
1. Ensure that the grill is cool, powered‐down, AND UNPLUGGED.
2. (SelectandAdvantageModels)Remove the four Phillips‐head screws securing the grill
front in place, and carefully remove the grill front.
(Pro,EliteandBuilt‐InModels)Remove the two Phillips‐head screws securing the ITC in
place, and carefully remove the ITC from the controller box.
3. If possible, leave all of the connecons on the circuit board intact. If it is necessary to
remove them to inspect the fuse, take note of their specific locaon. Marking connecons
with tape is a convenient way to do this.
4. Inspect the back of the ITC, taking note of the condion of the fuse currently in place.
Carefully yet firmly remove the fuse, prying it from underneath using your thumb or a so
instrument.
5. If you have access to a mulmeter, check for current flow across the two nodes of the
fuse. If you do not, simply inspect the filament of the fuse.
6. If the fuse seems to be blown, replace it with an idencal fuse, as is idenfied in the figure
to the right.
7. Restore any unplugged connecons.
8. Secure the ITC board and electrical box to the grill using the two Phillips‐head screws.
