...that it's an issue with the controller instead of something like the safety high limit switch which is a common failure point. If so then the Auber PID is the simplest option and is less expensive in the end than getting all the tools and materials to build your first ever PID controller...

...10 minutes, and that's only because I had to change my drill bit when getting the rivets out. Super simple job, and a quick run with my Auber PID says it is working as expected. I haven't tuned or tweaked anything on the PID yet, but wanted to get a quick confirmation that all systems were...

...vent is now the hottest area from heat stacking like a water heater for air to get out and there's a cooler opposite top rack side. My Auber PID controller goto rack is second from the top, then below for two rack and hang sensor off the top vent wall between them, then empty drip pan...

I bought a #3 several years ago with the intention of adding an auber PID controller later. I got so that I didn't feel the need to have that much control. I just use a Smoke thermometer for remote viewing of box and meat temps.

I drilled a hole from the oustide SS to the light socket and hardwired a 16 gauge extension cord to the 75 watt socket (printed on the socket) and put in a 40 watt bulb vs the standard 15 watt appliance bulb . Plug in is on, unplug is off with this bypass no back removal. I did the Auber Plug...

Thank you very very much for the feedback. Would it be worth trying to figure out the PID controller that I had made or just go with the Auber Instruments?

Some ramblings. Bradley is a well known good smoker. Auber makes a PID controller for it so it can be hot rodded (smoke higher temps) as well as programmed for sausage runs. The consensus on smoking fish is that the fish smell never leaves the smoker. Most have a dedicated unit for it. Can...

That right there is the way to keep the light if you want it .

I'm surprised you're getting such wild temp swings considering it has an Auber PID for temp control. Have you tried different settings with the PID?Here are some threads about PID settings with the Auber,though these threads deal with them using with a MES this should still be of help to you...

I smoked pepperoni, salami and ham sausage yesterday in the Masterbuilt Electric. I was around 0 def F outside. It took a little longer to get it up to temp. I also had hubby build me an external fire box using a baby weber grill with an metal tube out the top vent & secured to the MES. Just...

Think you're link got lost. I believe I found what you're referencing. Was a good read - I'll give that process a go once I get through my other initial troubleshooting steps! PID Steps

Hi there and welcome! The guys have you covered. Page 1 of the forum post that SmokinEdge linked to will give you a rewire guide. The Auber PID link that Winterrider linked will take you to the minimum model PID that will do all MES units. Many guys opt to go with the wifi version of the...

I do have a few questions. Can I provide you with an email address to reach me?

1. Ok so connectors seem ok, we move on to the other parts :D 2. Rewiring would bypass the lower circuit board and would make it not function with the stock controller on top. The stock controller would not even be fed power. Now, you could do some fancy wiring with a switch, etc. etc. to be...

The below link is a detailed step by step on setting up Auber PIDs. This guy used the wifi Auber with app on a Smokin Tex pro 1400 and came up with P=10, I=600 and D=175 and the out of the box Auber settings are pretty much the same P=7, I=600 and D=150 and the app smoker pic is this style...

...own a #3 analog. No complaints this thing is built like a tank. The analog works perfectly for ribs, pulled pork etc. But I also have the Auber PID that I can also hook up when I need more low stable temperatures for cheese, fish, sausage, salami etc. I have tried them all and I am older now...

My smoker sits outside just under a covered area on the edge of my deck year round, gets a little blowing rain every once in a while. Yep, all electronics will have temperature and humidity limits, and circuits will eventually fail. I have enough spare parts to build a PID controller for my...

This comes from the Smokin-It forums on how to bypass the analog controller and add an Auber PID. It's my understanding the Smokin-Tex wiring is identical.I'll make the assumption that you've already seen it but I'll post a link just in case you missed it...

...them enough to see they are also in practically new condition and are snug in place. 2. If I were to re-wire the smoker with the Auber PID, does that by pass the circuit board on the underneath of the smoker, making it non-functional? If I have zero knowledge or tools to solder, is that...
