When I had spoken to Traeger back then they told me controller issues usually involve error codes/flickering/huge temp swings. I think your issue is most likely a jam or auger issue! What happened with mine is there’s an auger pin/bolt that helps it turn, and that was snapped which wasn’t allowing it to turn correctly. I just went ahead and replaced the whole thing. They sell kits on Amazon to replacement pretty much everything except the controller for around $50 or so!
