Ok, I'm confused. My stoves Auger won't turn unless I bypass the preasure switch. When I pull the rubber hose that goes to the preasure switch I can feel air blowing out of it. It seems like air is coming out the chimney fine and the stove stays running. Could my blower motor be going bad or is it the preasure switch I need to replace?

The pressure switches rarely fail but one end or other of the hose barbs can plug.
If your having a good healthy fire and the stove pot runs without filling for a day your switch may well be the issue.

I cleaned the exhaust and the stove last week. I have never taken the blower kff and cleaned the fins inside there but have oiled it every year and its not loud. Can I just take the blower off and clean inside there?
