AOG 24-B-17A Rotisserie Back Burner
- Fits AOG 24-in, 30-in & 36-in Grills
Description
What Problem This Part Solves
The rotisserie back burner operates in a high-temperature environment and can eventually deteriorate from repeated heating, grease exposure, moisture, and normal use.
A worn back burner can result in:
- Weak rotisserie heat
- Uneven heat distribution
- Difficulty maintaining rotisserie cooking temperatures
- Poor browning of meats and poultry
- Burner deterioration or physical damage
- Problems lighting or maintaining the rear burner flame
Replacing the original burner with AOG 24-B-17A restores the dedicated rear heat source used for rotisserie cooking on compatible 24-inch AOG grills.

Important: 24-B-17A vs. 24-B-17
These parts should not be confused.
- 24-B-17A – Newer/current-style infrared backburner for compatible 24-inch L & T Series grills
- 24-B-17 – Earlier infrared backburner used on pre-2015 AOG grills
AOG's replacement-parts seller identifies 24-B-17A with newer 24-inch grills, while 24-B-17 is specifically identified for pre-2015 applications.
If you are repairing an older AOG grill, verify the original burner part number before ordering.
Installation / Use Instructions
- Turn off the gas supply, disconnect electrical power where applicable, and allow the grill to cool completely.
- Remove the necessary warming rack and rear-burner components to access and remove the existing back burner.
- Install the new 24-B-17A in the factory position, reconnect the applicable gas and ignition components, and reassemble the grill.
Important: Because this is a gas burner, any gas connection disturbed during installation should be checked for leaks with an approved leak-detection solution before operating the grill. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.
