New to the forum, need some help. Had my 1300 for 5 years now. Was working great till I got this error code. So changed out the hot rod and error code stopped. It now takes 12 to 15 minutes to light and just pumps out a lot of smoke. When you close the door the temperature just climbed. Thought I had the hot rod to far out. Reduce it some more and still the same, was able to use the shutt down to put it out. The temperature was at 300 when I shut it down. I looked after shut down and it burned most of the pellets out. I'm assuming there is to many pellets in the burn pot and it's not lighting fast enough. So how do I solve this. It worked fine till I got the error code. And it didn't happen during a cook. Just something to know . It's clean, the rod is only out the quarter, new bag of treager pellets . Thank you for any help
