NOTE: IF THE HOPPER AUGER MOTOR FAILED OR THE HOPPER AUGER IS JAMMED,
TO AVOID PELLET SPILLAGE, EMPTY THE HOPPER OF ITS CONTENTS BEFORE
EXECUTING THE FOLLOWING TESTS.
o
If the auger motor is defective, check to make sure that electrical connections are not
loose and check the fuses F2 and F6 on the control board. A defective fuse will be
darkened or will have a broken filament. If the fuses are good, the auger motor may be
jammed by an object.
o
If the auger is jammed, remove it from its housing. Disconnect the motor and then
remove the four screws on the steel plate that holds the auger shaft to the auger
housing. To have an easier access, remove the rear panel for an easier access. Pull
out the auger from the housing. Once the auger has been removed, make sure the
auger is straight, that the surface is not damaged and there are no burrs, or broken
welds. Remove any foreign material that may have caused the jam. Inspect the auger
housing for signs of damage such as burrs, rough spots, or grooves cut into the metal
that could have caused a jam. Clean the auger housing thoroughly to remove all pellet
dust.
o
If no object appears to block the auger, reconnect the electrical connections of the
motor and turn on the stove.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO TAKE AN ELECTRIC SHOCK
.
Test the motor using the "TROUBLESHOOTING" mode.
The flue temperature sensor failed.
The “thermistor” is a heat sensor located on the
exhaust motor housing. Its function is to tell the control board that the stove has ignited
properly by measuring the heat at the exhaust. When the stove is cold, check page 1 in
the
“TROUBLESHOOT” menu if the temperature displayed on the line “THERMISTOR
TEMP” displays a value equal to the ambient temperature in the room where the appliance
is installed. If this is the case, turn on the stove and check the same temperature display.
If after 10 minutes, the value has not increased despite the unit is in operation this means
that the temperature sensor is disconnected or defective. If the temperature rises, the
problem may be with the feed rate or pilot mode. Depending on many factors (ambient
temperature, pellet quality, etc) the heat produced by the stove may not be sufficient to
keep the exhaust temperature high enough. To resolve the situation increase feed rate
(see
Section 6.1.6 Combustion Settings and Pilot Settings depending on Fuel
Quality
).
