Hi. I have Keystoker K8 rice coal stoker. I do not have any air coming up though the fire path. I use a timer on it, and when the pins pass over the trigger(or if I do it manually) nothing happens. The fire path is clear, the blower motor seems to be running (vibrates when system is turned on and gets warm) and the secondary blower seems to be running also. The rice coal feeds fine too.

Thanks for any help, its getting colder the next few nights and have a young child to keep warm, and can not afford a weekend repair call.

The vibration could be your tip off. Have you checked the fan itself to see if it is clean or dirty?
