Hi all

I wake this morning and the stove is on shut down mode. House is a little chilly. Sure enough the high temperature switch is tripped. So I reset and restart the stove, but the fan does not kick on. No problem, I change the fuse, and I start the stove up.

Now the problems begin: When the stove gets warm, the fan kicks on, but starts cycling between high and low speeds at about a 2 or 3 second interval. I played with the heat settings, but on every setting, it did the same thing. Fan n high, then on a low, then high. Weird. I figure the mother board is dead, something like That maybe is blew the fuse to begin with.

If anyone has experienced such a thing, I'd be interested to know. Dealer is coming next week, so he says, but he ought to have a new mother board in his hands when he gets here. The thing is under warranty.
 
The stove was hooked to a good quality surge protector?
