I recently replaced the auger on my stove. Now I can't get the stove to start back up unless I hold the on button. Before and since I bought the stove All I had to do was push the on button and it would start. Suggestions????
 
Which button do you have to hold down? and for how long?

You may have disturbed the wiring changing the auger, so double check all your connections. Then make sure vacuum is holding, maybe changing the auger caused a gap somewhere in the fire box and the pressure switch is shutting down the stove for safety reasons.

This is the link for the manual, check out pages 19-21.

Good luck.
