Well I couldn't do much with stove ( broke my arm) I continued to run stove with 1 igniter ( I know my bad).stove ran great but it finally quit running, both igniters are not working . I'm thinking daughter board and igniters are bad , fuses seem ok , notice number 2 light is really dim .

Thanks for the help stove is up and running,the only problem is to start stove I have to do the candle trick otherwise stove won't heat up it shuts down. not sure the cause of this? On the igniter I'm not sure what white wires you're talking about switching.Are these the J-4&J-6 on the mother board? Thanks again for you're help, glad to have stove running with cold weather on the way

rona,I tried your candle trick it worked, stove ran as long I heated the thermocupler.once flame got going i reinserted it in tube. But when I put side cover on stove shut down. I was pushing thermocupler into far inside tube with side cover I bent thermocupler and glued it in place so far so good. I took feeder wheel off and noticed round threaded flange wasn't tight, I retightened seems to be feeding corn better. Hoping this fixes the feed problem i'm having, as of now my feed rate is 4+ and exhaust is -1. Also have lights 1&7 flashing will pull and check fuses tommorrow thanks for help

I noticed the thermocupler going into exhaust side of stove was loose its inserted into stove exhaust about an inch and half put a little glue on it to hold it.Stove was running decent for one day flame was lazy increased feed rate 1/2 a notch at a time stove has shut down , when i restart it flame is vibrant but when the air pump shuts off it feeds corn the flame is fairly vibrant then the stove shuts off with #2 light blinking, even though the flame is pretty decent. just thoughly cleaned stove, wondering if the thermo coupler is bad or its inserted to far into stove

Yes ash dump cycles, then it feeds corn . J18 ( thermocoupler) seems connected.
