PBV4NX dead controller board, needs replacement but Pit Boss says "Out Of Stock". Where to buy replacement?

I have the same issue. It's just a shame that pitt boss does not have the boards in stock.
Got the copperhead for Christmas did 4 loads was very happy then no display 2 blue lights. For the hell of it checked fuse and it good. Been a couple weeks already and still waiting on new controller board.

I got the controller. Moved the wires in the connectors to match the old controller. Fired right off! Seems to be working well, but only just a quick test. Will try smoking something soon.
Unfortunately, the Bluetooth is not working. Maybe moving the wire connectors around killed power to that circuit, even though the wireless symbol is flashing on the controller. I mean, I didn't have Bluetooth to begin with the old controller, it just would have been an added nicety.

Hiya from Easter NC.
My PBV4NX Copperhead controller board died after 1.5 months. Pitboss has been a PIA with a warranty replacement. First, "Oh, we didn't complete the order" and then "Out Of Stock, You Have To Wait" at the warehouse.

Are there any alternatives to purchase or upgrade this control board? I think the SKU is 80174. Google search has been no help.

Thanks for any info.

Any update or pics on how you configured the controller? I'm having the same issue and PitBoss has been zero help with sending me a new board. I'm going on 2 months with a giant paper weight sitting on my back porch.

So you had to pay for another controller even though it should be covered under warranty?

I'd rather pay $50 on Amazon now and use my smoker again right away than wait another 2 months for one from them. I've contacted them numerous times, and they can't give me an ETA on when a replacement will be shipped out. I'll just keep the one from them on standby or sell it since this seems to be a common issue with this Smoker.
