We have had this stove for 1 year and when we tried to turn it on for one of the first cold nights of the year it wouldn't work! Eek! Anyway, when you plug it in the whole panel lights up and it is unresponsive. We tried plugging it back in today and the fan came on but nothing else. It ran for about 30 minutes, beeped, and the panel lit up again. We bypassed the thermodisc and that didn't work. Does anyone else have some suggestions to what it might be?
 
Welcome to the forum! Did you give the stove and venting a good cleaning at the end of the burn season? Do you have surge protection on the stove? Was it left plugged in all summer? On a thermostat? check wiring connections...
