Masterbuilt Rewire for auber pid

[bszum2]

Anybody ever rewired a newer masterbuilt smoker to run an auber pid. I have a two black wires, a red, and a white. Trying to figure out what wires need to be wired together for the auber to take over.
Thanks

Im no sparky but I would think.
Red=hot
White= common
2 black=switch (on/off)
But I don't know that for sure. I'd wait for someone with more knowledge to respond. Also pictures might help of where you are trying to land these wires.

If you can add some pics of the controller screw terminal labels and the heating element on your smoker, I can likely help you with the wiring.

I think that's the one that you just have to bypass using the plugs in the harness .

There’s only one plug in that harness that I see? Am I missing something?
