Pit Boss PB260PSP2 error codes

This page applies only to the Sportsman Portable PB260PSP2. On this model, `ErP` is a shutdown or power-outage safety lockout, not the cooker-probe error found on PB700FB2.

What this exact manual documents

ErH

Overheat error

Manual meaning
The manual identifies an overheated unit, possibly due to a grease fire or excess fuel.
Safe first move
Turn the grill off, let it cool, then complete the manual’s maintenance and component-position checks before restarting. Contact customer service if the code remains.
Use the fire-pot safety path
Er1

Temperature-probe connection error

Manual meaning
The temperature-probe wire is not making a connection.
Safe first move
After full cool-down and disconnection, use the manual’s access path to check the probe wires and Molex connection. Do not substitute a probe without an exact match.
Diagnose the cooker probe
ErP

Previous shutdown or power-outage lockout

Manual meaning
The unit was not turned off properly when it was last connected to power, or a power outage occurred while it was operating. The manual describes this as a safety feature that prevents automatic restart.
Safe first move
Use the documented power-off and wait sequence, then restart from the specified setting. Do not treat this code as the PB700FB2 probe error — the same letters mean something else on that model.
Check shutdown and power history
ErL

Start-up or flame-stability error

Manual meaning
The grill fails to perform its start-up cycle or will not stay lit.
Safe first move
Once cool and unplugged, check component placement, fuel, feed obstruction, grill-probe condition, and fan behavior through the model manual before another start.
Work through the ignition path
noP

Meat-probe port error

Manual meaning
The meat-probe connection port has a bad connection or the meat probe is damaged.
Safe first move
Reconnect the meat probe at its control-board port and inspect the adapter and wire. This is a food-probe message, distinct from the cooker’s temperature probe.
Separate food-probe and cooker-probe care
