Outperform with Our Enhanced Controller
Modified Version PCB
- Two layers of PCB design brings more pratical funtion to the control uint.
- This controller is compatible with most Pit Boss models that use a rectangular controller and have a cooking surface area between 300-1600 square inches.
3 PID PROGRAMS
The controller has 3 PID versions (A45, A70, A99) to choose. A45 is for grills of which the cooking surface area is 300-600 SQIN. A70 is for cooking surface area of 600-900 SQIN, A90 is for cooking surface area over 900 SQIN.
ERROR DETECTION SYSTEM FOR CONNECTED COMPONENTS
- The controller can monitor the faults (e.g. bad contact, short circuit, open circuit, input/output power out of normal range) of its connected parts (Auger, Ingiter and Fan).
- When a part is detected abnormal, the corresponding icon flickers, error code shows, buzzer beeps, the grill stops working.
TIMER
- TIME COUNTING: Record the time you cook.
- TIME COUNTDOWN: Set a certain time to count down, when it count to 0, the buzzer beeps. Press any key to dismiss the alerts.
MEAT PROBE TARGET TEMPERATURE SETTING
- You can set target temperature(90F to 250F) of your meat probes.
- When the actual temperature of the meat probe reaches or is greater than that of the target temperature, the buzzer beeps. Press any key to dismiss the alerts.
COOK
- Cook at 180°F to 550°F(in PID "A99" is 600°F).
- Temperature can be set in 1-degree increments.
PRIEME
- To load extra feed of pellets to the Burn Pot to increase the intensity of clean smoke flavor.
- To quick heat recovery time.
“P”SET
- There are 10 smoke shifts from P0-P9 to choose.
- The temperature fluctuation range in Smoke Mode is within145F-175F.
MENU & F/C
- Press to switch betwen different function menus.
- Press and hold to choose temperature units between F and C.

This was the recommended replacement for an Austin XL grill. It never heats up past about 300 degrees no matter how long it runs. It takes forever to light because when you shut it off the fan continues to run for 15 minutes and burns all the pellets almost 3 inches up into the feed tube. It will regulate the temps if you're in the 200 degree range well but that makes it useless as a grill. Just buy the OEM replacement panel from PitBoss and enjoy the Bluetooth upgrade too. Avoid this one. It's not worth it.

I installed this today so I can’t say how long it will last. Bust so far I couldn’t be happier. If I had known about this I would have replaced the original controller even before it failed. In fact Pit Boss is sending me a new oem replacement controller for free and I have no intentions of taking this one out and replacing with the oem controller. My temperature hasn’t been plus or minus 3 degrees and I’ve ran it all the way from 200 to 450. Steady as can be. I’m ordering one for my other smoker. This is installed in my Pitboss 1100 sportsman. The original lasted exactly 4 cooks. I highly recommend this controller. If something changes I will update this review

Temperature reading is way off and takes forever to get smoker about 300 degrees

Installed in Pit Boss PB1000D3. Won't ignite pellets, slow to increase temp and doesn't meet set temperature. I programmed as instructed in manual, returned first unit assuming manufacturer flaw, installed second unit with same results. I'd seriously consider another unit at this point. Haven't heard back from seller, I've reached out but no response.

Easy to install and holds much tighter temperature tolerance than the OEM.My smoker was tripping the GFCI circuit every time I tried to use it. Was not sure if changing the controller would fix the problem but it did.Installation was easy. Removed the panel on the bottom of the pellet hopper (6 screws), popped the old controller out of the box (it is held in with plastic tabs), unplugged each connector and plugged in the same connector on the new controller to avoid confusion, popped it into place and tested. I did have to cut a zip tie off of the old wiring and re-tie the new wiring to keep it out of the fans.Controller was plug and play for my smoker, and easy to use. The directions for changing settings were a little vague, but seemed easy enough to figure out if you do have to change any settings.The way this controller meters in air and pellets holds the temp to within just a couple of degrees of the set point. Set point is modulated in 1-degree increments, where the old control made you jump 25-degrees at a time.Ultimately, very pleased with this item after the first 2 smokes.

This PID controller is plug and play, it looks like it was well made. Easy to learn the functionality in an hour. Test run went excellent. The controller does everything as advertised. Use the instruction and the video to learn the basics. I was surprised at just how fast it got my grill to temp. This controller, paired with a rapid igniter, had my Pellet grill working better than it had been in the past. So far, I feel it was money well spent. It fits perfectly and has just a slight plastic hood that allows you to see the display clearly during the day.

Bought this because my Pit Boss 820 pro series was putting out thick white smoke and the temperature would swing wildly until eventually it would flame out. I had already replaced the burn pot, the auger motor, the fan and temperature sensor. Nothing helped.I bought this and it installed easily. Ran some tests while recording temps on my Ink Bird thermometer app to see how it maintained temperature and it was flat as a table. What I didn't expect but am so happy about is the smoke it produces is thin and blue - like a stick burner. And it maintains temperature even in Smoke setting (P-set mode).Very pleased with this unit.
