Convection fan does not run when switch jumped ??

[RancherPacker]

I am asking this question ahead of time because it sometime takes a long time to get reply here. I appreciate all the help, replies and ideas anyone, everyone helps me with.

My problem is my 1992 Austroflamm pellet stove goes out after start up. So okay could be the low limit switch. It has a brand-new convection fan installed and tested with a lamp cord to be running. I also have jumped the low limit switch and thought the convection fan should turn on and run continuously when jumped but it does not.

We have owned and used the stove for 10+ years. . . .Stove and chimney has been cleaned 10 days ago.

I have a new F120 low limit switch and gasket on order arriving in a few days. If after installing new switch the convection fan does not turn on after start up, what can I try next?

It’s getting cold here family is shivering lol but not funny!

Well if it was me, and I don't know your stove so this is just me talking, but the first thing that I would do is see if there is power at the low limit switch, if there is and the convection fan is known good then next I'd check to see if there is power at the fan.

Honestly I don't know where the power comes from on your stove soo looking at a wiring diagram might be helpful but if there is no power at the low limit switch I'd be thinking about a control board issue.

But you say the stove actually goes out. What about a bad thermocouple. Could it be that the control module thinks the stove isn't making fire and shuts the stove off before it gets hot enough to close the low limit switch?

Assuming your fire is good can you jump the thermocouple run the stove and see if the fan kicks on.

Hopefully something in there will be helpful to you.
