So I'm in the middle of a brisket cook
Everything is good
I take my wife's little dog out for a walk and come back
And I noticed I had a temperature Spike of 20 degrees on the thermistor probe in the meat.
That don't look right.
Not to mention it's correlated with a spike on the thermocouple
So I pulled the probe out. It read 220 degrees in the ambient
Hooked it up to my Maverick, it works fine read ambient temperature
Plugged it back into the heater meter it reads 200 degrees.
Plugged it into a different heater meter plug that reads High also
Not to mention when I plug it back into the heater meter then the heater meter thermocouple reads like 300, unplug it reads normal, plug it back in the thermocouple reads 300+.
So what died in this heater meter and what do I need to replace?
Since I didn't build it, I bought it from Bryan, I'm a starting at Square One.
Also recall if you will that I've had noise on my thermocouple since day one swinging 1-2 F, if that's relevant
Thx
A second temp probe from the ready check reads a little bit lower than the heater meter thermocouple, but close enough that the heater meter seems to be reading right when no thermistor plug is plugged in.
