I have what I think is the Redi-Chek ET-73 and plugged in my Smoker probe and put it in my heated up smoker. I got the LLL output which usually means low reading or bad probe. After 20 minutes it never started working including turning on/off and reseating the probe. So I plugged it into the Food socket and the Smoker probe works on that side. So whats the deal? I could order another probe but that probe seems to work...???
Redi-Chek - the dreaded LLL yet the Smoker probe works on the 'Food' probe side?

Batteries?
Sorry to troll up my own old post but I'm faced with the same probem and trying to avoid buying a whole new thermometer.
In short, the smoker side of my ET-73 only registers LLL. I know the smoker probe is good as it works when I plug it into the Food port on the ET-73. And conversely the food probe also registers LLL when I plug it into the Smoker socket.
Last time a simple R&R of the batteries resolved it but not this time. I tried fresh batteries too.
Is there anything else to try to revive my ET-73? The alternative appears to be to purchase a new ET-73 or ET-732...
