Description: If your Weber Genesis II grill is not heating...

Steps:

1. This is the Weber Genesis II grill. Before replacement of the burner, we will start by cleaning the grates with a grill brush in order to be clean and safe.
2. Make sure that the grill is completely turned off so there is no chance of accidental burn.

3. Remove the grates using your hands.
4. Grab on each side of the grill grate with your hands and lift straight upwards.
5. Set the removed grate off to the side of the grill.
6. Repeat this procedure for all three of the grates on top of the grill.

7. Remove the heat deflector plates from on top of the burners.
8. Grab each deflector plate and pull straight upwards as with the grates.
9. Place the removed heat deflector plates off to the side of the grill.
10. Repeat this procedure for all heat deflector plates until each burner is exposed.
11. Only half of the heat deflectors plates will have burners underneath them. So do not be alarmed when not all plates have a burner.

12. Remove the burner from its slot in the back of the grill.
13. With both hands, carefully pull the burner upwards and slightly to the left in order to pull it out of its slot.
14. The burners can become stuck and require a little extra force to pull out, but do not pull too hard and hit the top of the grill or yourself.
15. If replacing all burners, repeat this procedure to remove all burners from their slots.

16. Detach the burner from the ignition device.
17. With a small wedge, such as a flat-head screwdriver, unclip the white connector from the burner.
18. With the ignition device removed, you are now all set to replace the burner with a new one.
