First the auger stopped working and replaced the pressure valve and the auger started to work again, Will doing this I shorted the circuit board and have replaced that and know the room fan will not work, its not the fan causing the problem. The off and on switch is not functioning as well they shut off will the pellets are still burning. There must be a sensor somewhere not working the schematic in the manual is ambigues at best, Can anyone help
 
The fan doesn’t really have an on-off switch. Going by the wire diagram for your stove there is no snap disc’s. The pof (proof of fire) is done with a thermistor and your convection fan will be controlled by it to. Check the thermistor connections and make sure the one on the stove end is clean and tight, the one on your board is snug and makes a good connection. The thermister may have been damaged in the short!
