The stove was installed in 2016. Still running original fan and auger motors. I smoked the original board when I pinched the wires to the ignitor when replacing the burn pot last year. I replaced the board so other than that it has been trouble free. This evening on start up right after the flame ignited the stove went silent. All indicator lights were extinguished. I removed power from the stove and pulled the board. Performed a continuity check on the fuse and it was open. Looks as if my Saturday plans are shot in the arse. Time to dust if my Aviation Maintenance trouble shooting skills. My plan is to do a full inspection of the wiring, then on to isolation of components. The combustion fan has been getting noisy over the last two seasons so that is going to be my first item after wiring inspection. I'm not expecting a could not duplicate discrepency sign off for this one. I'll keep you all posted with my findings.
