Tape them up for now so they can’t touch metal
 
Is the fuse on the back of the board blown?
 
Damn. I should have sent some of them too. I get them in bulk. They may have some at your local hardware. 120v 5amp fast blow

Tell me about it!
Now that I know its just the fuse, I'll live. But at first I thought the whole control board!!
I think maybe the neighbors heard me yelling and cursing and they live 1/4 mile down the road.
After..all...this....aaaaaaah
 
Yeah they should have some. The fuse has it marked on the ends but i have to use a magnifying glass to read
 
Im more concerned with “why did it blow” lets hope it didn’t hurt the board. I do know a repair guy though lol
 
Big L tiny f.= Little-fuse (manufacturer)
 
It prolly blew 'cause I dont know wtf I'm doing.

ohh you know more than you think. Most would have given up way back on pg2! By the time we get this wrapped up you will know everything about your stove, and be able to troubleshoot problems all by yourself. Ok Danielsan show us sandafloor lmaoo;)
 
Ok. Good news. I found a replacement fuse at MyNards ( gotta stop going there. I go in for ONE item..) and it's back on.
I havent hooked it up to the stove pipe yet 'cause I wanted to see if I had a vacuum with this new fan. Nope. It still shuts off then blinks. I'm going to have to leave the vacuum switch jumped.
 
Man that thing is clogged up !!!
Yeah get it connected to the vent pipe. leave vac switch jumped and fire it up

It wouldnt come on at first!
So I hooked the vacuume switch back up and it came on, went off, turned on, went off.
So I rejumped the vac switch and it stayed on this time.

It must be doing something. I havent used the blow dryer and the fire is getting bigger instead of dying this time!
Should I close the air intake a bit..or leave it?
