I Just bought this house and started to need heat.
Back In April it had smokey startups. Smokey restarts. Not too bad but could see smoke waft out a bit from behind the cast panel/trim set. I Knew it needed to be cleaned and put it on the summer chore list. All in all it worked fine.
Heres the cleaning process I did. I cleaned the stove top to bottom and ran a brush down the flex pipe that extends out the top of our old fireplace. Has a nice fitting custom galvanized Chimney cover. I pulled the stove out of the fireplace disconnected the vent pipe and everything. I blew out the fan cages with compressed air and all the hard to vacuum areas. I took apart the firebox tiles and cleaned all up in there too! I thought I did a great job. I also replaced the door gasket.
After I put it all back together, I still had the same problem. smokey startups and now a new problem! Fan noise. The exhaust/ combustion fan was having a lot noises. I ran the stove a few days and the noises stopped. Then one day I start it up and the fan wont start. I still had the trim off so i gave the little flywheel a bump and bingo it goes.
Well after the last shut down The stove wont start at all. The fan starts the green light is on and the red light just flashes. I dont have a blue light. Just a red call light and a green and red led light on the brain module with the computer socket type connection on the bottom.
Ive unplugged it. Hit the reset button with therm on hight and the fan speed on high. Nada. No glowing of the igniter or running of the auger. Just all I get is call light solid red and green light ontop solit green and a flashing red light under the green light. None of the snap disks are tripped. What could it be??? Help Its my only source of heat in my house!
