    Omg! You’re my hero! Brand new blackstone. First time owner. Left side would fire up just fine, right side literally was taking like 30 minutes to get to light. It was a gift for my birthday and I just found out that when it got delivered my wife was trying to hide it from me and was having a hard time moving it on her own so she literally was flipping the box to move it and get it hid. I was curious as to why one corner of it was slightly bent in when we opened it. I thought it must have happened on truck but I now know lol. Anyways, must’ve been what happened to my right igniter because it was definitely positioned too high. Thanks so much!

    Right out of the box wouldnt light. Ended up polishing the electrode and tube to get it to spark and even then it needs to be within 1 mm of tube and over gas hole. Very iffy igniter. Thought blackstone had better quality than that. I shouldnt have to screw around with something right out of the box for hours to get to light.

      Very sloppy. I'm trying to get my ignitor and my air gap adjusted properly on mine now. The first thing I had to do when I assembled it was scrape off all the weld splatter that was stuck all over the griddle top. Have pictures that are going to Blackstone and the Internet world about the QC of their product.

      Right there with you. 4th cookout was almost ruined cause of this. Luckily my buddy kept trying and somehow eventually worked
      Regulator hose for propane wouldn’t work. Went with small 1lb tank and nothing. Tried a lighter, nada. Shouldn’t have to repair or modify on a new grill out the box. Never again

    Thanks for the quick fix. Ignitor tip was resting on top of the tube burners. Bent them up just enough to create space between the ignitor tip and tube burner. Fired up on the first try.

  • @randobot6814
    @randobot6814 Před 2 lety +3

    A scenario not covered by this video that you may encounter with the igniter on the Blackstone is the electrical connector to the backside of the knob. Due to traveling with the Blackstone, this connector may become loose and hanging free. Simply reconnect it to get back to spark.

    • @SimpleMan-rx1uo

      could you do a video on this so others know exactly what you are talking about? I have traveled with mine and now its not lighting. I took the igniter off the frame and looked it over, everything seems fine but it still wont spark. Yes I have changed the battery too. Would just like to see what its supposed to look like. Thanks.

    Just got the 17inch with hood from target for around $350. Put it together. And in the box included the hand checked off Chinese sticker for different parts they "passed". Well it doesn't ignite. I can turn it to low-high and light it with a lighter and it fires right up. I looked at the igniter and it clicks but sparks maybe 1 out of 5 tries. I even tried to light it while pushing in the button with a lighter and it didn't work. So I don't know what to do. As the gas valve works obviously and lets me light it but when I push in the button it should be lighting but nope

Sometimes there’s time where it still makes the clicking sound but I just hold on to it until it turns out. Usually that’s a sign that i need to switch out the gas. Hope that helps.

  • @levelwitme
    @levelwitme Před rokem

    I thought this video would solve my problem. The igniters have always been iffy, then stopped working completely. I took off the griddle to adjust the tips only to find out that they don't even spark. Why do they not spark? The unit is a year old and has always been in my garage. I've pretty much always used butane lighters because, as I said, even when the igniters did work, it was very difficult to make it light. Help please!

      my ignitor works about 1 out of 6 times on either burner...tried 2 full tanks ... it works 5/5 times (on either burner) if I light the burners with a match ...i have watched what seems every video and reset the regulator, adjusted the needle valve to right over a hole, 3mm ,quarter inch, 1/8/3/8...best I can get is about 1/6 lights...and I can only tell with the griddle off...This seems to be a problem you guys have known about for a while and didn't fix ..a $250 grill ruined because of a $2 dollar part ..

This is the first that holes weren’t close to lining up, threaded inserts wouldn’t even accept a screw, everything out of whack. Then finally get it pieces together and then won’t start so came here to CZcams! Wish I could just return this junk

    I bought a 1554 series 36". It cooks great and I love it....have to use a lighter to well...light it.
    The thing I hate and find it terrible for this product is the ignition system.
    Mine did not work brand new out of the box.
    I email Blackstone and after 3 emails with a brain dead person who could not grasp that i needed a complete new ignition system, finally sent me the igniter box...not the complete system as I stated.
    So,, I replaced it and poof...nada. Still BROKE, will not spark.
    It has to be the rubber cap with spring as it does not push in correctly (as I stated in my email)
    Should I make an attempt again...meh.
    I chalk it up to bad product and kick my self in the @ss for not getting the Camp Chef that has the piezo electric system.
