Auger motor not turning. Igniter and exhaust blower working, red auger motor indicator lights as usual. Replaced pellet control board and hopper snap disk but did not correct problem. Is it worth replacing flow switch. What voltage should be coming into the auger motor
 
I had the same problem with mine right after I had it installed. I ended up calling them back and it ended up being the Auger Motor. Just make sure there isn't anything jamming the motor from turning, if you see the red auger coming on and turning off most likely the motor is getting power.
 
Sounds like the vacuum switch
there is all kinds of advice about his in the Yellow sticky keys on the top of the pellet room.
My pellet stove stopped feeding pellets

120 Volt to the motor
you could run a test plug to it


Be sure your venting and all ash traps are clean and clear
Pull the combustion blower and clean
