Easy to install, just a few screws- up and grilling in 20 minutes.
Simple and easy to order. Simple and easy to install. Love my Traeger
Relaxing the hot rod was easy. And it's been working great since.
Use only Traeger replacement parts if you want no hassles.
This solved my issue completely. I knew I had an issue, but I couldn't figure it out until I did a bit of investigating. Website gets a lot of credit here, too.
If your are tripping your ground fault breaker when you fire up the Traeger, change the hot rod....easy fix.
My grill burns better now that the hot rod has been replace. It didn't take long to change out and very simple after watching how to replace it on YouTube.
Exactly what I needed in rebuilding my Pro 22 after 8 years of hard use!
This is the second rod in seven years, Very easy fix only takes a couple minutes to replace
My Timberline was taking over 25 minutes to ignite and another 15 minutes for the temps to stabilize and super smoke was basically a joke. After investigating my fire pot I noticed several burn though spots and a very used igniter rod. I cook on my grill about every day and was tired of waiting for it to ignite and preheat. Ordered the firepot and igniter rod assembly. Assembly came with the igniter rod already attached, the fire pot and the cable to install. The video on this site was helpful but if you want to replace the entire cable it does require a few more steps not listed in the video. If you have any technical know how you should be able to figure it out. Simply remove the bottom panel under the pellet hopper and remove the 4 screws that secure the fan to aid in installation. Also if you remve the 4 screws holding the control panel on the front of the grill it will make plugging in the other end of the cable. Original cable it zip tied up to take up the stack in the cable and this assembly does not provide one ( or at least mine did not) so you will need to provide a zip tie. Traeger I think a zip tie should be supplied in this complete assembly. Once cable is plugged but everything back together. After I replaced the assembly it only took about 5 minutes for my grill to ignite and 2 more minutes to stabilize the temp. Very happy . Total installation was only about 15 minutes. Hope this helps someone else.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
