E3

E3 — Loss of Flame

Weber · SEARWOOD Grills

What does E3 mean?

This error indicates that the grill has detected that the flame in the burn pot has gone out during operation. This prevents the grill from maintaining its set temperature.

Common Causes

  • Low quality pellets or insufficient pellets in the hopper.
  • Auger jam preventing pellet delivery.
  • Fan motor failure, reducing oxygen to the fire.
  • Blocked burn pot with ash or debris.
