I have an old Austroflamm Integra pellet insert. Lately , it has been shutting itself down. It starts up fine, but soon after the circ fan comes on, it shuts itself off. The circuit board was rebuilt last year, and has worked fine last winter, and up to now. Any suggestions where to begin looking for the problem? Thanks.

Sounds to me like it's filthy inside the exhaust tract.

Ill try and jump out the low limit switch today,....see what happens. If that's not it I'll have to pull it out of the fireplace and check the tailpipe.
 
Why I've never been fond of insert stoves at all. Much easier to deal with freestanding. Especially if you have to pull it for any reason.
