My 2002 Mt Vernon has issues - solid green light and blinking red light on control box. No fuel feed either, and the reset switch does not seem to "click" like it used to - red call light works. Anyway, my dealer said the light issue was bad thermocouple, but I replaced it and nothing has changed. I shorted the 2 wires to the vacuum switch (as per dealer) to get feed auger to go - bu no go. Let's see - I have tried to reset all the 2 snap switches that accept resetting. Does anyone here have other suggestions before I get the dealer out for a service call? Thanks in advance,

John
 
if you jumped the vac switch, double ck the snap disc's. You can also jump those to test them. Your prob is most likely so easy its hard to see. The old Mt V is an excellent stv and very basic. Follow the elec system with a volt meter. If you had a lightning strike over the summer it tends to fry the snap disc's or computer. If the t-stat light is on most likely the comp is ok
