Auger Motor Defective
The auger motor can be checked while it is still installed inside the stove. Follow the directions below to check the
auger motor.
Unplug the stove to prevent electrical shock.
Unplug the stove. Disconnect the
auger motor leads. Attach a hotwire to
the auger motor (orientation does not
matter).
Plug in the hotwire and watch to see if the
auger turns. NOTE: watch the auger for a
couple minutes to verify that it is turning
over repeatedly Ð a jammed auger may
turn slightly.
If the auger does not turn over, remove the auger
motor, attach a hotwire, and check the output shaft.

NOTE:
If the output shaft on the auger motor does
not light up with the auger shaft hole, you
may hotwire the auger motor to turn the shaft
until it lines up.
Make sure the lock screw goes
through the auger shaft and
contacts the dimple on the output
shaft of the auger motor.
