When the flame drops out, the controller does not stop right away; it fires the glow plug to relight the pellets and shows E19 while it tries. A burst of bigger flame and smoke as it relights is normal, because extra pellets have gathered in the burn pot. Weber grill display What to do when E19 shows on the grill ### Kind of code Flame and gas flow The control lost its flame or never found enough gas to hold one. The common reasons are plain: a propane regulator that dropped into its low-flow safety mode because the tank valve was opened with a knob on, a tank running empty, wind across an open burner, or a flame sensor coated in grease. Knobs off, the tank closed and reopened slowly, then a relight usually settles the first; if you smell gas, walk away first, and the valve, the sensor and every fitting stay with a technician. ### Usually leads to Grill valve and regulator repair Stiff, leaking or unshuttable grill valves, worn knobs, tired regulators and cracked hoses replaced, with gas orifices matched to propane or natural gas. ### Shows up as Grill Error Code on a Pellet Controller or Digital Panel A grill error code shows as letters and numbers on a pellet grill controller, a flashing light on a digital control panel, or an alert in the maker's app paired with the grill. ### Make Weber Weber grill calls often come from a flame that dropped low mid-cook; the tech starts at the tank, the hose and the regulator. ### Source Weber Searwood 600 / XL 600 owner's guide (US, 2024), troubleshooting pages Searwood 600 and Searwood XL 600 pellet grills with the Weber Connect digital controller (US owner's guide, 2024). ## Before you book, in this order.

Leave the grill plugged in and let it try to relight. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why did my Weber puff out smoke and flame after showing E19? Weber says a larger flame and more smoke are normal when the grill relights, because extra pellets fall into the burn pot and catch together. It settles within a few minutes. ### Should I unplug my Weber when E19 appears? No. Weber asks owners to leave it plugged in so the glow plug can relight the fire. ### What usually causes E19 on a Weber Searwood? Low or poor pellets and ash buildup in the burn pot are the common causes. Checking the hopper is the first step. --- **[Read on the site: Weber E19: the flame went out and the grill is relighting](https://bbqgrillrepair.center/error-codes/weber-e19/)** **[Book a visit with BBQGrillRepair.center](https://bbqgrillrepair.center/schedule/)**
