Have had the Hudson River Saranac pellet stove for about 3 weeks now. Replaced the auger motor 2 weeks ago. Had a pellet stove repair person come in to clean and thoroughly check it over.
Today I put it on #3 as I was rather chilly. About an hour later the flame was super low and noticed the auger motor wasn't turning. Both fans were running though.
I then hooked another auger motor up to it and that didn't work either.
Pellet stove guy had me bypass the snap switch - nothing but the 2 fans turned on. Left that bypassed and then bypassed the vac switch like he suggested and still nothing from the auger motor or ignitor. By bypassed I mean the snap disk wires I taped together with electrical tape. The vac switch I used a wire from one clip to the other clip.
So I have an auger that isn't jammed as it turns freely - we tested it and it's not getting any juice so to speak.
Ordered a control board but it won't be here most likely til Thursday.
Anything else I can try to see if it's something else? It's my only source for heat at the moment besides space heaters I have rounded up.
