Martin stove owner needs help with control board

You might try this place: http://api-assembled.com/support/martin/martin.htm

I have no idea what they are like, but if your unit is out of the running it can't hurt to give them a ring.

Could you describe what you mean when you said your current board is fried?

If you post the timing information, etc .. maybe someone might be able to cross it to another control board or offer up a list of what would be needed to cobble together one. You need to understand that any such setup is definitely not up to manufacturers specifications.

I too would like to know how to assemble a board for my Martin FS-3. That is the only part of the stove I feel uncomfortable with if it quits. All the rest of these stoves are pretty much off the shelf items or something can be made to work. Anyone want to tackle this? I also heard somewhere once a standard board for some other type of furnace with an auger might work in them. No idea how to chase this though. I have tried searching the net. Anyone?

Burny,
Thanks, that should be a good starting point for building one for the Martin Venturi. It is more complex because some of the functions are not on the Martin. Maybe someone here that knows electronics would review it and come up with a diagram for us? I know the "pressure switch" and "door switch" wouldn't be needed. I think the "momentary switch to start" would go too and just take the red wire directly to the "timer"? The "low limit snap switch" would go too I think (just eliminate the pink wire altogether?)? I need guidance on this. I have the wiring diagram for the Martin (not the circuit board itself). I really don't know what I'm doing so don't anyone try this unless you really have good info. We need some help with this!

Bump....A little help please?
