I am having problems with my Whitfield pellet stove that is leading me to believe I need a new control panel. The blowers and auger motor seem to be running "weak". It doesn't hold a good flame and goes into "fault" mode pretty regularly. The blower motor sometimes will stay on medium and doesn't want to go on high and blow correctly.

I have tried many other things such as:
1) Throughly cleaned stove and exhaust
2) Replaced door gasket
3) Replaced photo eye
4) Replaced high temp snap switch
5) Checked to make sure vacuum switch was working correctly
6) Cleaned hopper bin and auger out

Any thoughts? Also, where would be best place to purchase a control panel? They seem to be expensive. Thanks!!!
