What BurnerN gas valve has short circuited
actually means.
Each SmartGrill burner valve is driven electrically by the controller. A short circuit report means the controller sees a wiring or coil problem at that valve rather than a gas supply issue, and the manual gives no owner fix for it.

What to do when BurnerN gas valve has short circuited shows on the grillKind of codeController and display
The controller itself reported trouble, or stopped answering: a display that flickers or shows segments missing, buttons that no longer respond after rain got behind the panel, a board whose relays stick, or an app that will not keep its connection. A full power cycle, done as the manual describes with the grill cold, clears a passing glitch; a code that returns, or any sign of water behind the display, means a board or a keypad, and that is a visit.
