How It Works
Cook Mode In Cook Mode, the temperature of the grill is continually
monitored and a microprocessor operates the draft fan and
fuel feed auger to maintain a constant grill temperature.
Smoke Mode In Smoke Mode, the fuel feed rate is set manually by the
operator. The grill operates at low temperature to provide
maximum smoke.

Installation
Removing the Old Control
Required Tools Medium Phillips screwdriver
Small slotted screwdriver
Unplug the Grill Unplug the grill from AC power.
WARNING: AC power is present on the control at all
times and is a shock hazard unless the grill is
disconnected from the wall socket or AC line.
Remove Hopper Some grills are equipped with a protective panel mounted
Bottom Panel below the hopper. This panel protects grill components
while allowing air to flow into the draft fan. Remove the
screws and panel from the grill, slide the panel down the
power cord, and set aside.
Disconnect the Working under the grill, locate the control’s wiring harness.
Control Disconnect all four plugs that connect the control to the
grill’s components (fuel feed auger, draft fan, igniter, and AC
power).
Remove the Control Remove the faceplate screws using a medium Phillips
screwdriver. Save the screws for use later. Gently pull the
control forward, rotating it slightly to the right. Once clear,
pull the wire harness up and out of the cutout.

Disconnect the If you are removing a Traeger Digital Control, you must
Temperature disconnect the temperature detector. Turn the control until
Detector the circuit board is facing you. Using a small slotted
screwdriver, disconnect the temperature detector lead wires
from the two-terminal connector J1 located in the upper
right hand corner of the printed circuit board.
Remove the If you are replacing a Traeger Digital Control, the
Temperature temperature detector is compatible with the RealTemp
Detector TR-100. Replacing it is optional. For best results, we do
recommend replacing the temperature detector, especially
when installing the TR-100 as a service replacement.
Open the cook lid and remove the internal grill and drip pan.
Locate the temperature detector. Using a medium Phillips
screwdriver, loosen its mounting screw and nut. Lift the
detector and feed its wire leads up and out of the grill.

Feed the detector’s wire lead down through the shaft hole
and out through the wire hole.
Run the Detector Feed the detector wire lead down between the grill and the
Wire Lead pellet hopper, then up and out through the control cutout.
Use caution when feeding the wire lead to avoid damaging
its insulation.

Attach the Detector Install the detector into the shaft hole with the slot
to the Rail positioned over the screw hole. Install the screw from
above, down through the slot and through the screw hole.
Install the nut from below and tighten.
Connect the WARNING: Disconnect the grill from AC power.
Temperature Installing the control while the grill is connected to
Detector AC power could result in shock or could damage the
to the Control control.
Connect the temperature detector lead wires to connector J1
located in the upper right hand corner of the printed circuit
board. Use a small flat blade screwdriver to fully open the
contacts by turning the set screw counter clockwise. Insert
the wires and tighten the contacts by turning the set screw
clockwise. You can connect either lead wire to either
terminal of connector J1.

Install the Control Feed the control wiring harness (four plugs with orange,
into the Cutout purple, red, black, and white wires) downward into the grill’s
cutout.
Insert the control into the cutout. Install the control’s circuit
board into the cutout at an angle to ensure the circuit board
fits through the cutout without damage.
WARNING: Do not force the control into the cutout.
Bumping electronic components into the edge of the
cutout during installation may damage the control.
Retrieve the two faceplate mounting screws that were used
to hold the old control in place.
Using a medium Phillips screwdriver, install the top faceplate
screw and lightly tighten. Install the bottom faceplate screw
and tighten. Tighten the top faceplate screw.
Connect the Control Connect the fuel feed auger, draft fan, igniter, and AC
to Grill Components power to the TR-100. Working under the hopper, connect
