Englander blower motor

[Scott Edwards]

so when my Englander stove gets up to temp the blower runs but it's really low but when I change the speeds on the control panel it doesn't do anything . do u think it's the control panel?

I wouldn't start with the board, but checking out the output power from it to the convection blower. I'm sure others will chime in with more information.

So check the wire or check to see if the board is putting out 120 ?

And would it be alright to run it the way I am until I get the part I need?

Pull the motor and make sure it's clean,check it for dust bunnies and hair,clean the fins of the cage and see if that helps.a dirty blower can slow the speed down a lot.

Can I use the same gasket or do I need to get a new one?

For the blower motor you should be able to use it again just be careful when you take the blower out its in a awkward spot and is a bit of a pain to get at.i just cleaned mine back in sept. And it was full of pet hair gave it a good cleaning and a few drops of oil and it made a huge diff.

Yea it's almost like it's running on a 1 speed and when I push the up buttons it doesn't do anything. It looks like you may have to remove the circuit board first to get to the other two bolts

Yes take the back off the stove remove the circuit board and get a long ext and a ratchet take the 4 bolts out and the motor will come out.take note of where the two wires hook up to the board. Getting it out is easy putting it back in is a real p.i.a.once you get it all cleaned up and reinstalled do a board reset make sure ur stove is in d mode set ur bottom 3 at 6 4 1 and start it up.you can also put ur stove in diagnostic mode and test the blower see if it's any better.

Right now I have it set in mode C because it wasn't burning hot enough l. I know it burns more fuel but it works good. How do u do a board reset?
