Everyone dreads when their grill stops working normally. The familiar "tap-tap-tap" of the electric ignition quit on me after 8 years. After changing the battery didn't work, I went online to see what the next step was that I needed to take to resolve the issue. I saved my original owner manual and searched for the most likely part online. Then I went to YouTube and looked up Weber Genesis grill ignition module to see if anyone made a video about how to replace this part. I must be super lucky because I did find one video and after following the presenter's instructions, my grill was as good as new!! The YouTube channel is called "Hilltown" and I highly recommend it!
I installed this brand new unit and all three burner tubes are harder to light than before (middle unit just clicks, won’t light at all). Very frustrating, want Weber to send me replacement starter box and cables
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
