The Pelletstove Corner

If you turn your stove on, press the button and get no green light your stove will not drop pellets automatically. I think of it as a contract or deal between you and the stove. When you turn on the stove, press the button and the green light comes on you then have a “deal”, and the deal is this: you get me hot enough and I’ll start dropping pellets. No green light no deal.

The problem is associated with the vacuum pressure switch that is positioned between the control board and the auger motor. If there is not enough negative pressure to close the vacuum pressure switch, electricity flowing to the auger motor and to the green light on the control board will be interrupted.
