When your stove acts out of the ordinary, the first reaction is to call for help. This guide may save time and money by enabling you to solve 
simple problems yourself. Problems can be caused by to only five factors: 1) poor fuel; 2) poor operation or maintenance; 3) poor 
installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect. You can usually solve those problems related to 1 and 2. Your dealer can solve 
problems relating to 3, 4 and 5. Refer to figures 19, 20 and 21 to help locate indicated parts. 
 
 

STOVE SHUTS OFF AND THE # 2 LIGHT FLASHES

 

Possible Causes:

 

Possible Remedies:

 (Unplug stove first when possible)

 

 
1. 

Airflow switch hose or stove attachment pipes for hose are 
blocked. 

 
Unhook air hose from the air switch and blow through it.  If air flows 
freely, the hose and tube are fine.  If air will not flow throw the hose, 
use a wire coat hanger to clear the blockage. 
 

 
2. 

The air inlet, burnpot, interior combustion air chambers, 
combustion blower, or exhaust pipe are blocked with ash or 
foreign material. 

 

 
Follow all cleaning procedures in the maintenance section of the 
owner’s manual. 
 

 
3. 

The firebox is not properly sealed. 

 
Make sure the door is closed and that the gasket is in good shape.  
If the ash door has a latch, make sure the ash door is properly 
latched and the gasket is sealing good.  If the stove has just a small 
hole for the ashes to fall through under the burnpot, make sure the 
slider plate is in place to seal off the firebox floor. 
 

 
4. 

Vent pipe is incorrectly installed. 

 

 
Check to make sure vent pipe installation meets criteria in owner’s 
manual. 
 

 
5. 

The airflow switch wire connections are bad. 

 

 
Check the connectors that attach the gray wires to the air switch. 
 

 
6. 

The gray wires are pulled loose at the Molex connector on the 
wiring harness. 

 

 
Check to see if the gray wires are loose at the Molex connector. 

 
7. 

Combustion blower failure. 

 
With the stove on, check to see if the combustion blower is running.  
If it is not, you will need to check for power going to the combustion 
blower.  It should be a full current.  If there is power, the blower is 
bad.  If there is not, see #8. 
 

 
8. 

Control board not sending power to combustion blower. 

 

 
If there is no current going to the combustion blower, check all wire 
connections.  If all wires are properly connected, you have a bad 
control board. 
 

 
9. 

Control board not sending power to air switch. 

 

 
There should be a 5-volt current (approximately) going to the air 
switch after the stove has been on for 30 seconds. 
 

 
10.  Air switch has failed (very rare). 

 
To test the air switch, you will need to disconnect the air hose from 
the body of the stove.  With the other end still attached to the air 
switch, very gently suck on the loose end of the hose (you may want 
to remove the hose entirely off the stove and the air switch first and 
make sure it is clear).  If you hear a click, the air switch is working.  
BE CAREFUL TOO MUCH VACUUM CAN DAMAGE THE AIR 
SWITCH.
