Hot Wire the fan, using a power cord with a ¼” Male and ¼” Female
spade connector at this time to see if the fan is defective. If the fan runs,
continue trouble shooting the fan circuit in the stove.
If there isn’t any voltage on the
Pink
wire, check to make sure the
Pink
wire is inserted properly into the Molex connector that plugs into the
control board. The wire may appear to be inserted properly, but sometimes
is not connected to the pin on the control board. Push the Pink wire into
the Molex connector to ensure they are seated properly.
Check the
Pink
wire in the harness for continuity if needed using an OHM
meter.
If the wire is inserted properly,
carefully
check for voltage on the pin-out
on the control board. If no voltage is present on the control board, the
control board is bad and needs to be replaced. (
See note on page 79 on
when voltage is present)
If there isn’t any voltage present on the control board, the control board is
defective and needs replacing.
(See note below)
NOTE: The Vacuum switch will affect the way the Convection fan behaves. If the
Vacuum switch is closed when the stove is turned on, the convection fan will not run
the initial 30 seconds, but will turn on after 5 minutes. This may happen if the
switch is defective.
Combustion Fan
Exhaust Fan
-
Located near the back left-hand-side of the stove under the hopper and
mounted on top of the exhaust manifold. This multi-functional fan is used to draw either
inside, or in some cases outside, combustion air into the firebox area of the stove and then
expel the exhausted gases out through the exhaust manifold and into the atmosphere.
The Advance Heat button will run the Combustion Exhaust Fan at 5 variable speed
settings; there are a total of 5 Heat selections available. The first four selections increase
the fan speed proportionally; while the last selection runs at the maximum speed setting.
Air is drawn into the stove in 2 locations. The first is Combustion air, which travels
through the Air Inlet tube into the Burn Pot area; this is where air and fuel get mixed with
heat to produce the combusted by-product, which gets sent out the exhaust port. The
second location is the Air Wash System; this is where air gets forced down the inner
surface of the ceramic glass to provide a clean glass surface for viewing the flame.
As an electrical component, the troubleshooting of the combustion fan can be broken
down to a defective fan, a defective control board, or issues related to the wiring. If the
stove lights up and the Combustion fan never comes on the Vacuum switch would shut
the stove down after approximately 45 seconds. Follow these steps to troubleshoot the
convection fan:
