    Hi, My stove is about 11 years old. I have made certian that it has been thoroughly cleaned. Initially the stove would not fire up and get going. Based on the Circuit Board blinking on the #3 position after going into safe mode and reviewing the owners manual troubleshooting, I replaced the POF Switch and while I was there, replaced the High Limit Switch. The stove Now Starts and runs for about 15 minutes which it wasnt doing prior to the switches being replaced, and then the pellets started dropping. One thing I have noiticed is that the Convection Fan does not seem to be kicking in as it used too. I remembered that I used to hear both the combustion and convection fan both come on for awhile before one (I assume the convection) fan would shut off for a period of time. I believe the convection fan does work as It will turn on IF I push in on the red reset button on the High Limit Switch and stop upon release of the the reset button. I can also visually confirm that the combustion fan is running upon the stove running. Based on the information that I am able to provide, do you have any idea of what the issue may be? I was going to replace the Fan unit, but as I said it does turn on when I push the reset button which tells me that its getting power and does run. Not sure if it would act any different if I run power directly to the motor leads. Is there a relay or switch which causes it to come on that I have missed? Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hello, I have an American harvest pellet stove model 6039. When I go to setting four and five the pellet tray or the pellets fall into seem to get overloaded. Of course this causes the fire to go out. Something just doesn’t seem right. Your thoughts please

Looks like when I give it its 1 ton cleaning I'll do the pipe also. Thanks again for the advice

    It could have a heat sensor switch that turns it on and if that has gone bad that would keep your stove from turning on the fan.

    Hi, I have a Harmon Accentra pellet stove and it isn't working properly. We just switched pellets and thought it was that , but got new smaller pellets and same thing is happening. The stove will start up, get a low flame and then we get the 6 blink error code. We feel like the pellets aren't getting into feed chamber bcs we knock them in and then it starts working again only to shut off 30 or so minutes later. The flame never gets big. The stove never heats up it just shuts down. We thought the pellets were making a bridge bcs it would start again when we jiggled the pellets. We have thoughroughly cleaned the stove. It was dirty when this initially started happening a week and a half ago. Any help in diagnosing would be really helpful. Thanks, Alysia

    Depending on which stove you have and which motor it is. Some only last 3-5 years. Some last 20 years. 7 years would be at the bottom if it is a high quality model.

  • @JASONRICHARDMunson

    The pop could be from a snap disc or from a relay on the control board. If you high limit sensor is getting tripped, the stove will stop feeding pellets and the fire will go out. I would probably try bypassing or replacing the high limit sensor to start.

    If the auger motor is older it may just be getting tired and has lost it's power to push through that build up. You may need a new auger motor.

    Overfeeding is usually and low airflow problem. Too much fuel not enough air. Usually caused by blockage in the air pathway or exhaust fan going bad.

    The way that I learned how to work on Pellet Stoves was by going to work for a store who sold them and needed a service technician. If you're a bit more gutsy you could probably get most of the info you needed on how to fix any stove from youtube. Put out an add in your local paper or craigslist and see who calls with what problems and try to fix em.
