Hello folks. After a few years of use with my HM, I think my thermocouple port has finally called it quits. I luckily had a brand new spare probe so I'm pretty sure it's the port. The temp spikes ten degrees, 4 degrees for no reason. Is there anything I can do to further diagnosis or possibly...
That's another good idea. I would think having any play in the handle area would cause chipping but maybe I'll give that option a try as well. Thanks for the input folks.
