Lil Tex not keeping temp

Ok guys finally got around to replacing the rtd probe. Same thing. Set to smoke it fires right up. Set to a temp and it will get to set temp. Auger will stop and never kick back on. End with an error every time.

Here is a picture of the grill. The Id tag inside the hopper lid is long gone.

I'm guessing it's the controller. You need a bac365. In the photo you posted the one you have is a bac389. There maybe a difference and are not interchangeable. I can't find anything on the net that says what the differences are.

Yeah I couldn’t find any info on the controller I have either. I’ll just order the one you mentioned and try that.

Ok I bought the 365 from traeger. Still same problem. Any possible way this could happen from having wires plugged in wrong?!?! I don’t see how it would even work at all if I did. Only thing that hasn’t been replaced is the heat rod.

Here is the wiring diagram for the little tex.

Well I’ll go ahead and share what a couple of you might have already known was the issue. After all that stuff i bought it ended up just being two switches plugs. The hot rod and auger plugs were switched. I feel like a dummie but at least it’s fixed. And %50 restored. Lol. Thank you for all you guys help.
