I was gonna suggest just brushing it off through the flue, but maybe taking it out you'll find a loose wire or connection. Nice easy fix.

What color is the esp wire, what are the dip switch positions. I can tell you that it os not the motor. I had asked about polarity, is it ok or not? What is the voltage to the motor at start up before you go to test mode? Based upon what you are telling im inclined to say control board....
Ok the polarity to the outlet is fine running at 120
The voltage to the motor at startup averaged around 92 with a peak of 96
The esp wires are white then shrink wrapped to black, no red or any other colors.
As far as dip switch settings on the board, i didnt see any dip switches at all.
The outlet is a gfi outlet though, could that be a problem?
voltage seems somwhat low, but likely wont be a huge cause of issues. Unlikely the GFCI is the issue either. No dip switches? Older boards didnt have any. I stand by my nothing wrong comment.....ESP not getting hot enough to roll the dsitribution fan.....
Neither of my stoves start feeding til, usually, at least 5 minutes in. Keep in mind, heat immediately starts wicking into the fire box and heat exchanger and that's where a lot of the initial heat is lost.
That is strange. I wish I could offer a solution but at least you can trick it into running.
I've lit both my stoves a hundred times and never noticed anything like that....but, if I recall, and maybe I'm imagining it, when I'm at the door open lighting stage, the combustion fan spins slower until I shut the door. Then it spools up. Again, maybe I'm imagining it and I feel stupid cuz I've done it so many times.
What I'm getting at, assuming I'm correct, is perhaps its a draft sensor (think that's what its called) issue?

LW,
The problem he is describing is with the combustion fan not the distribution fan. He is using terms like exhaust fan and convection fan that are confusing. The bottom line is that the combustion fan should run at the same rpm all the time and its not.
I know the answer.....swap the common wires for distribution and combustion wires. They are backwards..trace from the board back.

no. trace all of the common wires off the board to the respective components. Harman turns on/off the commons to complete circuits. I think the common wire for the distribution and combustion are backwards. Look at the wiring diagram and trace them all to the correct components
