Has anyone ever had the probe on their Maverick ET 732 act up? 

This morning when I began to smoke, the meat temp was reading LLL.  Now after only an hour and a half in the smoker, my 4.5 lb butt is reading 189 degrees.

I've tried resyncing and all but can't come up with any other solution.  Any suggestions?

I had the problem on my cooker probe where it would read HHH then start flashing arbitrary temps.  I replaced both  probes with high temp probes and all is well.

Where might one get these high temp probes that you speak of?

From the Mav website.  I think other vendors have them as well...some advertise here.

Guess I should have just gone to their site, but I thought you were talking about some third party high temp probes.  Did you get the same probe that came with the Mav or do they have something better?

I have had interference from my wireless router 2.4ghz cause the thermometer to loose its wireless signal.

The ones that cam ewith my therm were standard.  I replaced them with high temp probes with 6' cables.  It did the trick.

I think the probe is screwed.   I pulled the probe out of the meat and it will only go down to 145 degrees and its 72 degrees and raining here.

On the high heat probe, the only one I see does not say it fits the 732.  Do you have the et 732 Bama?

Bubba here is a site to get your 6 ft probes cheaper and quicker than Maverick will send them to you. They are original replacement probes from Amazen products. http://www.amazenproducts.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=40  Todd is a Advertizer here and a excellent site sponcer that really backs his products. He donates prizes for throwdowns...gatherings... plus he is a active member in our forum. Hope this helps you out...

I will second the recommendation for Amazen.

My replacement meat probe has worked much better than the original.

Good luck and good smoking.
