Andrew Posted July 8, 2010 Report Posted July 8, 2010 I bought one of these, but when my KK came today I found that the sensors would not fit through the small sensor port. My sensors have a bend in them, and the bend would not go through. I thought some people here had used them. Was I mistaken, or are the ports smaller on new KKs? (Or should I just force it through, not something I generally like to do). Thanks, ah Quote
jdbower Posted July 8, 2010 Report Posted July 8, 2010 I had one (stopped using it after I got my Stoker - the range just wasn't there). The easiest method is to gently bend the probe to straighten it. It doesn't need to be perfectly straight, but after you're done you may want to calibrate it in boiling water. Quote

I will probably eventually get a stoker or BBQ Guru, but I want to get good with the temps on my own first. Quote
DennisLinkletter Posted July 8, 2010 Report Posted July 8, 2010 Maverick I've had a couple of Maverick's.. I gently and slowly straightened the sensor.. It just needs a little straightening to get thru the hole.. Quote
