Book a visit

Three short steps, about a minute.

or call (844) 660-6426

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Kalamazoo's own guidance for Steady blue bezel light on its grills. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Give the grill a moment after plugging it in or resetting the outlet before pressing a knob.

02

Then light as usual: press the knob in for five white flashes and turn it to HIGH/START.

03

If the ring stays blue and pressing a knob never brings the white flashes, check the GFI outlet and the extension cord, then book a visit.

Cleared?

The code is gone from the controller, the grill climbs to its set heat and holds it through a full cook, the pellets keep dropping and the probe readings stay believable, all without a new part. If the same code comes back within a week, or after the next rain, mention it when you book.

What not to do

Steady blue is not the flashing blue of a timed-out ignition. It appears only while the system starts up after power is connected.

What you may
notice with it.

The grill problems Steady blue bezel light tends to arrive with. Answer these at the grill before anyone is booked.

All problems

No repair indicated

Nothing to repair.

Nothing on the grill has failed; the controller is showing a state it was put in on purpose. A shutdown cycle keeps the fan running to burn off the last pellets before the grill goes quiet, a keep-warm setting holds the cook box low, a demo mode lights the display without feeding fuel, and a pairing screen waits for a phone to connect. No part is needed; the button sequence in the manual, or simply letting the cycle finish, returns it to normal.

In Kalamazoo's own words

A steady blue glow is shown when the system is booting up after being connected to power.

Questions
about Steady blue bezel light.

Can I clear Steady blue bezel light myself?
Give the grill a moment after plugging it in or resetting the outlet before pressing a knob.
Why are the knob lights on my Kalamazoo grill glowing blue?
The control is booting after being connected to power, for example after the outlet was reset or the cord plugged back in. Kalamazoo describes it as a start-up state.
Is steady blue the same as flashing blue on a Kalamazoo grill?
No. Steady blue shows while the system starts up; flashing blue appears only when a knob is held in and the ignition has timed out.
How can I check that my Kalamazoo grill is getting power?
Kalamazoo suggests switching on the rotisserie motor: if it runs, the grill's central system has power. The grill should be fed from a GFI outlet through an outdoor-rated extension cord.

Back to your everyday

Still showing Steady blue bezel light?

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code copied exactly, the model and serial from the rating label, and a word on whether the grill still lights, heats or feeds pellets. With those three the office can match the likely part to your grill the same day.
