I emptied the hopper and watched the shutdown on my last cook and it fed pellets for a while then near the end the auger reversed. So what you describe seems normal (from what I have seen).I do think that it’s weird the when I put it into shut down mode, it makes the sounds like it shutting off but keeps feeding pellets into the burn pot. Any thoughts on that? That seems to me there some wires crossed, or software issue. Only thing is the glow plug wasn’t working, At the end.
As for the glow plug, what's your burn pot look look like? Is it clogged up?
How clean is the tip of the glow plug?
Is the glow plug seated correctly and have a good connection (a hose clamp can help)?
All these things can cause issues.
