1. Ignitor died, replaced under warrantee...does anyone have install instructions? My unit is corner mounted, will i need to move it out into the room?
2. Auger seems to be damaged...the last turn at the end is chipped, not bad but chipped....i wonder if this is something i need to replace..and if it is a warrantee item
3. Until i fix my ignitor what is the best settings to use? On manual the pellets seem to stop coming at times and the fire goes out.
 
changing the ignitor now....was a complete PIA!!!!

15 minutes to game time...i hope i finish...i had to stop to bandage up the slice on my thumb....:-(

i need a BEER!!!!

Relax.... Have an adult beverage. Hydration is the key to most activities.

The ignitors on a Harman are easy to replace.
1.) Clean the burn pot
2.) Remove the two thumb screws on the bottom of the pot
3.) I think it is 5/16" socket and remove the two screws holding in the ignitor
4.) Pull out the ignitor and remove the hood with a pair of pliers
5.) disconnect wires and repeat process in reverse.
6.) pull wires through from the back of stove taking caution not to disconnect while pulling.
8.) Fire up the stove and have more hydration

problem is somewhere around #4 i disconnected the wires....so now i need to push the ignitor wires thru the stove in order to then reconnect them with the stove wires.

this is turning out to be "less than easy....." :-(
