Pellet Stove only blows air on high speed

[Justin2366]

Hi, I have a 1991 Breckwell P24i pellet stove insert. Recently it overheated cause the squirrel cage blades were covered in LOTS of dust causing the power supply wires to melt. I fixed the wires and cleaned the fan blades but now it only works on high speed. It doesn't matter what setting it is on it will only blow on high. Before the overheating incident it worked fine on all speeds. Can someone please tell me what part I need to get or if there is something I can do to fix it?

Thanks

Justin

The blower and the auger are controlled by the same adjustment speed knob. The adjustment works for the auger speed, just not for the blower.

I never changed any of the wiring makeup, I only spliced the wire back together where it melted. It has a pink wire that comes from the board for the hot and the neutral goes to the bus bar.

Just want to let everyone know I fixed the problem... kinda... I went down to the hardware store and bought a fan speed adjustment switch for ceiling fans in your house. I wired in inline with the pink power wire going to the fan. Now I have an infinitely variable fan speed that is independent of the auger speed. Seems to be working well so far.

I can repair the board for you if you need it repaired. Thanks
