    Since I am going to disable the safety limit rollout switch... that just might be my point of entry for the temperature probe....

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    Does anyone know the operating voltage of the LED light that is mounted on the upper door of the MasterBuilt Smokers? Is that a 110v AC LED bulb? Just wondering if I can add switch provisions for this light assembly on my electrical panel for the PID Controller.....

    Thank you and to everyone else out there and their contributions to this thread. Your input is helping me with this project! I just keep at it as time permits. I did get my relay control wires built, crimped, and soldered. Waiting on the circuit breaker! Thanks again!

    OK, I have been working on this slowly as time and weather permits building the control panel. It was a slow process making the cutout for the controller. Still waiting for the On/Off switch circuit breaker (in shipping). I will probably make up the relay wires tonight... The other 1/2 of...

    Pins 4 and 5 are the pulling voltage for the relay. I see what you are saying about the neutral wire. Just wiring into the neutral will simplify things a bit. I do have a lighted LED push button switch for this, not sure if I will use it. The heating element will draw 6.6 amps (800 watt), the...

    Dr K, that is great info about the rollout limit switch. I think I will eliminate mine! Thank you! :D All of the items that I listed in my post have been ordered, some already received, and a few things I still need to get. I am pretty good with wiring so wiring up the PID kit won't take me...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    So I was thinking about this today at work. I need to do your modification to retain the safety rollout limit switch..., and make the small cutout panel in the back for access. While I'm in there is there a test for that switch? Am I looking for a resistance value or a closed circuit? Then...

    Hi and Thanks for your reply. I will keep you posted on how this goes. I ordered my PID Controller about a month ago, and it should be arriving soon. There will be some time spent mounting the components, and then switching the PID setting from Celsius to Fahrenheit. I believe the...

    MES Rewire Simple Guide - No Back Removal Needed!!!

    OK, so this is my first post on this forum. Looks like there is a lot of good information here. So I got a used 30" Masterbuilt smoker from a brother-in-law about a year ago. It was only used a few times to roast a couple turkeys. For whatever reason, he no longer wanted it. I bought it from...
