I have a St. Croix Prescott that has been running perfectly the entire season until yesterday. The auger is now continously feeding pellets into the burnpot. The intermittent cycling is gone. I've tried unplugging to reset the board and reset the high limit switch. I did pull the auger to clean out. Could there be a way to put it back together incorrectly that would lead to this problem? Thanks in advance for anyones help!!!!
 
I never worked on St Croix specifically, but in general the electrical current to the auger is controlled by the control board, so that's what I would look at.
