We have an American harvest 6039
Cleaned it good today.
We fired it up...and noticed it was not doing right....
Now the fan will run...with the stove off...
Tried unplugging the electric cord...
Plugged it back up...motor still running.
Help please and thanks.

Your triac is the one right in line with the fuse labeled exhaust.

The part number will be stamped on one side of it should be a BTA12-600W

It sounds like it's stuck in shut down mode. Plug it in and close the door. If your vacuum is good it'll shut down shortly.
 
ok so it tested good? there is something else going on then. try what Smoke posted and if that dont reset the board probably time for a new one
 
Lets see if @ARC has any more ideas. I hate to see anybody buy a new board before we can exhast all possibilities.
 
So new control panel??

Unfortunately it looks like a new board. I bought a board from USSC in January it was $195.63 with shipping there are a number of boards that look alike so make sure you order the right one for your year and model of stove. Best bet is to call USSC have year, model number and serial number ready. There is one aftermarket site that is selling the same board for the 6039 and 6041 they are not compatible as they are programed different.

Ok. We got the new circuit board...
But it is different from the old one..‍♀️
Yes I called and ordered it and gave them all info on stove..
I noticed on the old one that the ACHOT... On the right looks like it has been hot..and the fan corn that hooks up to it looks burnt to...black on it...
So now I'm wondering if it was something before the circuit board...
Did not notice that before..
Bottom of picture...has old one wrote on it...

looks to me like something touched the ac hot while the stove was running/plugged in. is there something that connect to the achot and accom on your old board? now im gonna find a wiring diagram. the new board should be correct its just a newer revision.
