I cleaned and loaded my stove last night. I got up this morning and topped the hopper off before leaving for work. I noticed before leaving the fire was out. I went to check the board and no light after pushing button. I checked the outlet and I had power there. The power light will not come on. I unplugged it and waited and plugged back in still nothing. I had to leave so illI have to work on it tonight. Any suggestions as to what it might be it's been running great. I replaced the exhaust blower beginning of season and it's been fine.

Sounds like you blew the fuse. I'd have a couple on hand and replace it and try it again, you might have had one that was due. If it blows again, then start to diagnose where the high load or short is that caused it to blow.

Ok, I'll check when I get home. I have a bunch on my electrical box. I'm guessing it's on the board do I have to pull the back off? Thanks for your response

Yes you will need to remove the rear panl. Fuse will be on the back of the control board. (5amp fast blow) there should be an extra taped to the control housing.
The fuse was blown. I put in a new one and it blew right away. I checked the augers and seemed OK. I disconnected the igniter which I don't use to restart and it's been running since. I had replaced the igniter at the beginning of the year but hasn't worked. Thanks for your help.

Like I always asked my kids, “what was the last thing you did before it stopped working?” In this case, yiu did a thorough cleaning and the problem surfaced. Thinking maybe a wire or something got joustled and is causing a short. Just a thought.
