The 3rd winter i try to start my stove . Although it started a blower ,nothing else happened . Since I bought another feed motor but it still does the same thing . I have cleaned exhaust blower and stove pipe .Igniter sti!l works just no motor or anger action .
Help !
How do I make and use a jumper wire to test switches ?
 
Have you checked exhaust pipe for blockages like a birds nest or maybe a baggie used to seal it for Summer? Same for intake air channel.

Try bypassing the vacuum switch to see if auger starts. Usually folks use a couple spare connectors crimped on braided insulated wire for bypassing.

Thank you for the advice . I purchased alligator clips & made a jumper wire to bypass the vacuum switch . And IT WORKED
