The lid badge says Genesis. The parts bin needs Genesis II E-315 vs original Genesis vs Spirit. The riveted/sticker plate wins. Generic locations: find grill model number. Hubs: Spirit, Genesis.
Where Weber hides the plate
- Inside the left cabinet door cabinet wall.
- On the left cart frame under a side table.
- Behind / under the control panel (especially Q and some carts).
- Older Spirit: underside of a side table.
Wipe grease. Shoot a wide photo (proves which cart) and a tight photo (every character).
What to copy
- Model string: Spirit E-310, Spirit II E-310, Genesis II E-335, Q 1200, SX-315, etc.
- Serial: keep private in public forums; use for Weber schematic lookup.
- Fuel: LP vs NG — orifices and some tube kits differ (68950 vs 68951, 67489 vs 67491).
- Control layout: front knobs vs side knobs (side-control Spirit ≠ 2013+ front-control bars).
Common mix-ups
- Spirit vs Spirit II (GS4 / 67053 vs 7642 families).
- Genesis vs Genesis II (Flavorizer length changes).
- E-310 vs E-315 vs E-330/335 (sear presence).
- Q 1200/2200 vs Q 3200.
Procedure
- Locate and clean the plate.
- Photograph wide + tight.
- Open Weber’s schematic for that exact model/year.
- Order electrodes/tubes/bars only to that schematic.
- Use the finder as a search hint, not a substitute for the plate.
- Side-control vintage: side-control Flavorizers.
- Built-ins: built-in model numbers.
- Still stuck: measure burner tubes and bar length.
FAQ
Serial required to buy Flavorizers?
Model + year/family is usually enough for bars/tubes. Serial helps when Weber split mid-year changes.
