My pellet stove starts fine. But the blower won't work. I'm not getting any error codes on the control board. It will continue to feed pellets as if nothing is wrong.
When I power down, everything just shuts off. It doesn't cycle through its cool down mode.
I'm assuming the control board is bad. Or could it be something else i'm missing?
 
Maybe the blower motor is bad. the control board would send a signal to the blower motor, but it can't tell if it started or not, so there would be no error code.
 
Sounds like a sensor - snap disc possibly not getting juice to the motor
 
You can check a couple of things- Put power directly to motor to see if its working or check voltage coming to the motor from the control board. Maybe the motor is bound up- needing to be cleaned? Doesn't take much gunk to jam it....
