Try a spray electronic cleaner if you can get it into the windings.yeh test see if it even works at all
I can't find Joe's rebuild main boards on ebay...can you link to them please. What is the latest programing? my current board has V3.5 Bhttp://pelletstoverepair.com/IntegraTechManual.pdf I left you a link to repair manual.Hey flam,temp switch at the combustion blower is the high switch,the one by the convection blower is the low switch.Try jumping that switch.Also,if does not work,check for voltage at that switch.But,as you have had other problems before,I suspect you need the main board.Lucky for you someone (Joe) is selling rebuilt ones on ebay,cheap.I reccomend you get the last availible programming,you will like it.Good luck.
The board advertised is from Joe. here is a link to his website. He is a really good guy and very knowledgeable Give him a call.He will be able to talk you through it.yikes I hate to spend $180 without knowing it is my main board for sure. Is there anyway I can tell?
Could it be the convection blower since it is not working? Or will the main board fix that too?
The stove seems to be working fine right now even without the convection blower turning. I don't know why it was going out for 2 days and not staying burning.
Some of the problems you may have seen about my stove before was pure operator error since I am new to pellet stoves and I had no manual. The only thing I know for sure is 2 days ago pellets would stop entering after anywhere from 15 mins to 44 mins, and the flames would go out then it seemed when the stove would cool down the pellets would start again and pile up because of no fire. A few times I turned it off at the user control box so the pellets didn't restart falling in. I didn't catch on at first that the pellets would start again if the stove rocker button was left on.
Does it matter if the stove runs without the convection blower? It seems to be doing fine now. My son-in-law says the convection blower on his 1991 Lopi pellet has not worked in a long time and he isn't going to fix it.
I really appreciate all the help. One of these days I won't be such a novice LOL All this troubleshooting etc will certainly help that.![]()

I don't know why you would want to run your stove without the convection fan properly working..

Okay yes I did unplug stove and here is a picture of the male /female terminals on my convection blower. The stove is burning when i took this pic and neither of the fans (that little black one or the large squirrel cage type) for the convection blower are turning. The exhaust one is working though.
Is the convection fan supposed to turn when stove is on low? because if I turn the stove up to high it will start running. However that is when stove shuts it's self off/down too. I jumped both snap disks and it still will shut off if on high.
