STOVE WILL NOT FEED PELLETS, BUT FUEL FEED LIGHT COMES ON AS DESIGNED
Possible Causes: Possible Remedies:
1. Fuse on control board blew. Remove the control board. On the back there is one fuse. If it ap-
pears to be bad, replace it with a 5 Amp 125 Volt fuse. Plug the stove
back in and try to run the unit.
2. High limit switch has tripped or is defective Wait for the stove to cool for about 30 - 45 minutes. It should now
function normally. If not use the owner’s manual to locate the high
limit thermodisc. To test if the thermodisc is bad, you can bypass it
as described previously for the POF thermodisc.
3. Bad auger motor Remove the auger motor from the auger sha and try to run the unit.
If the motor will turn, the sha is jammed on something. If the mo-
tor will not turn, the motor is bad.
4. Auger jam Start by emptying the hopper. en remove the auger motor by
removing the auger pin. Remove the auger sha inspection plate in
the hopper so that you can see the auger sha . Gently li the auger
sha straight up so that the end of the auger sha comes up out of
the bottom auger bushing. Next, remove the two nuts that hold the
top auger biscuit in. en rotate the bottom end of the auger sha
up towards you until you can li the sha out of the stove. A er you
have removed the sha , inspect it for bent ights, burrs, or broken
welds. Remove any foreign material that might have caused the jam.
Also, check the auger tube for signs of damage such as burrs, rough
spots, or grooves cut into the metal that could have caused a jam.
5. Loose wire or connector Check all wires and connectors that connector to the auger motor,
high limit switch, and the Molex connector.
6. Bad control board If the fuse is good, the wires and connectors check out good, and the
high limit switch did not trip, test for power going to the auger mo-
tor. If there is not a full current going to the auger motor when the
fuel feed light is on, you have a bad control board.
