I have a harman xxv that when I turn on only the combustion blower is turning on not the auger, igniter etc. this began after I cleaned the ash pot etc and restarted it yesterday. The stove lit but then when back out and this is now the case since. When I turn it to test mode everything appears to work and the sensor light is not blinking. I cleaned the exhaust fan blades, ESP sensor and exhaust pipe but no change in the problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
Sounds like the vacuum switch is not being be activated to start the auger. Check the vacuum tube and the stoves port for blockage, possibly to good of a job of cleaning:) Have you done a door gasket check wit dollar bill lately?

Can you expend on the stoves port?
 
Stove side of the hose from the vacuum switch that should be a barbed fitting that the hose slips onto.
 
Take a dollar bill and close the door on it and if it can easily be pulled out its no good. Do it all around the doors to rule out vacuum loss because of the door seals. Vacuum hose and its stove port sounds ok.
 
Sounds like something was not put back together correctly. Or the flue needs cleaned. Gaskets should be fine at 3 yrs old.
