I have a Harman Advance, was running fine then went in to a low burn mode and is not feeding pellets. I have clean it very well. When I start it in auto mode it fills the pot and ignites but then does not feed pellets after that. I have cleaned the esp probe. Any suggestions?

Check all your gaskets...Door, Ash door, & Hopper lid.
Make sure the fines box cover is on correctly...

I haven't cleaned the fines box lately, I will do that tonight and double check the gaskets.

From the manual:
1- no pellets in the hopper no brainer there!
2 Firebox draft may be too low for low draft pressure switch in feeder circuit to operate. Ck. for closed doors & gaskets, faulty press. switch
3 feed motor will not operate until ESP senses 165*
4 something restricting flow in the hopper or causing the slide plate to stick.
5 feed motor failure
Since you just cleaned it, I would look close at the slide plate, something may be jammed there.

Thanks, for the suggestions. I cleaned the fines box, vacuumed all the gaskets really well, and unplugged from the surge protector. Not sure which one of these things took care of it but I am up and running again.
