Hello

What type ignitor does the Osburn take?
Looks fairly standard but need to know the wattage and how long it is?

Here is one but I do not see the length and wattage

The low limit snap disc is an F140

STOVE FEEDS PELLETS, BUT WILL NOT IGNITE AND L APPEARS ON THE CONTROL BOARD
Possible Causes: Possible Remedies:
1. Air damper open too far for ignition. Adjust the air supply to the minimum setting for startup. In some
situations, it may be necessary to have the damper completely
closed for ignition to take place. Once there is a flame, the damper
can be adjusted to the desired feed setting.
2. Blockage in igniter tube or inlet for igniter tube. Remove the burn pot and clean it thoroughly. Make sure that all
openings are clear. Find the place where the igniter tube comes out
of the burn pot housing. It is a small tube located on the back of the
burn pot housing. Make sure it is clear. Make sure there is no debris
around the igniter element or inside the igniter tube.
3. Defective igniter element. Supply power directly to the igniter element. Watch the tip of the
igniter from the front of the stove. After about 2 minutes, the tip
should glow. If it does not, the element is defective and must be
replaced. You may need a technician to perform this test.
4. The thermistor heat sensor has malfunctioned. The thermistor is a heat sensor located on the exhaust housing. Its
function is to tell the control board that the unit has ignited properly
by measuring the heat in the exhaust. The pellet stove will not start
feeding pellets at the desired heat setting until it has received a
signal from the thermistor heat sensor. If the thermistor heat sensor
is bad, the unit will stop after the ignition cycle. If this situation
occurs, call your dealer or technician.
5. The control board is not sending power to the igniter. Check the voltage going to the igniter during ignition. It should be a
full current. If the voltage is lower than full current, check the wiring.
If the wiring is functional and properly connected, the board is
defective. You will need a technician to perform this test.

Hello

I will find out the serial # to see if it is threaded or slip on.
Today I worked on a 3 year old Osburn 45 MF Hybrid.
Are the bolts on the service door to the combustion blower phillips heads or what?
The only way to loosen them was to use my vice grip pliers on them!

Pic of 3 year old Osburn 45 MF Hybrid below has threaded ignitor. Does this mean most stoves have a threaded ignitor?

Also is there any way to remove that combi blower for servicing. It looks really hard to remove from the stove!

Ignitor type depends upon serial # (Threaded or not)
