I hate I didn't get back sooner. I replaced the board, motor, and surge protector. Now it runs great, w/ weekly maint.(cleaning + lube).

This is my 2nd season with this stove.

After err 5 codes, 1 hr run times, + blowing 1a time delay auger fuses, + several times cleaning+vacuuming around auger,+ stove. Thinking the old motor was bad, I replaced with a new one, the amps, + rpms, are similar to the old one.

When direct wired, outside the stove, the new motor + old motor rotate fine.

The new motor, + old motor, not hooked up to auger immediately blow the 1a auger fuse. I tried a 2a regular fuse, the new motor, not hooked up to auger, does not rotate, just hums, the old motor, immediately blows the 2a fuse.

Could anyone tell me what going on? thanks.
