Hi,

I hope this is just a fluke after getting the auger motor fixed (which corrected our burn problem) just last week.

Today, I turned off the stove for a cleaning. When I turned it back the fire started quickly, but it the control board never let go of control for the thermostat to take over (yellow light kept on blinking)...I turned off the stove, unplugged it, checked all the seals, restarted it, and it worked correctly. I didn't see anything wrong with any of the seals when I checked, but just open/closed the door.

I hope this is a fluke, but was wondering if anyone knows what this could be possibly be? After reading the tech mauals, I was wondering if this could be a sensor problem (not sensing the stove was hot enough to give control to the thermostat)...Anyone else ever see this? Should I worry about this? I'm travelling soon for work, and was hoping these problems would be resolved so my wife wouldn't have to worry about them.

Thanks for anyone'e help!
