Have been running my 6100 with the 6220 upgraded board, very happy until an auger motor wire touched/melted/shorted. Blew the fuse! Board does everything but the auger is on all the time, even when it is supposed to be off. New board is just not in my budget. Does anyone have a used one? I would even use a fix/idea like a way to slow down the auger. If power is on all the time, would a good old dimmer switch work? So this could split out to be a post as well, sorry just didn't figure the best way to post on this Site!!

I think a dimmer switch only adjusts the voltage to it..I think you would need some kind of timer...?..I'm sure others here will have some better input on this..

Regardless of the setting on the dimmer switch, the opening and closing of the gate (and thus the circuit) occurs many times per second. It happens so fast that we do not perceive the individual starts and stops with the naked eye. We instead perceive the circuit change in terms of brightness. The more the gate is open (the lower the dimmer setting), the fewer times the bulb is turned back on and the dimmer the light appears. The more the gate is closed, the more times the bulb is turned on and the brighter the light appears.

I don't know anything about your stove/furnace model but is the motor running on AC or DC?

AC...

Well....

I talked to my local CB repair guy and he looked at the board for my stove. He simplified it quite a bit and figured that a transistor went bad as well. He studyied it for a bit and asked if i wanted "MORE" heat out of it....duh!

So we changed the transistor to a different one that what was in there. WOW!
It is the same board as the 6500 uses I think! And now I am off topic!!! Here is what we did... CTA12-600B that is what was damaged changed it to NTE56010.

The nuts and bolts...CTA12-600B 600v 50ma 12a, NTE56010 800v 40/75ma 15a... the words auger control massive. I say Cool Beans but!!! It is up and running 1.25 lbs and rf2 set to 160 and it "pulses" just perfect.

Thanks to all!
