I have the Dell Point Europa. I noticed two augurs in the lower ash extraction were "stripped," maybe due to the repeated "baking on" of the hot ash. I bought 2 augurs from the dealer and with the help of an auto mechanic, we replaced two augurs in the assembly.
After I re-installed the lower ash extraction assembly, I filled the burn pot, lit the stove and pushed the "pellet" button. But the control panel died out. The stove motor just makes a sqeaking noise at intervals...and the motor doesn't get going.
Do you think there is something wrong with the control panel connection? I am thinking that if there's something wrong with the way we replaced the augurs in the ash extraction, that it would have blown a fuse. That's why I think it's an electrical connection problem.
My dealer is very difficult to reach and I have never had much success calling the technicians at Dell Point. For all I know, the company is out of business.
Let me know if you have suggestions or ideas.

Call the folks at Paromax.

That is where the Europa folks are. The inventor has control of the stove now.
