I am sure this problem has been answered someplace but maybe you can repeat for me. My stove was reading Err-6 so I replaced the fuse and it is now running, dropping pellets etc. But, it will not ignite. Not even get warm. Getting ready to order an igniter. Just started it up a week or so ago and it had been running great. From experience is there anything else it could be before I place the order?? Stove is a little under a year old...

According to the previous owner of our house the igniter had failed on him a few times on our king 5500. When it died on me, I just started lighting with a push button propane torch..... takes about 20 seconds.

After work that is what I will do
Just turn the stove on, I like the "3" setting for starting, throw a good handful or two into the burnpot then use the torch until you get a good amount glowing red, close the door and in a couple minutes it should be running. You don't actually have to get them burning a full flame with the torch.
