Been looking over the board for a couple weeks. Thanks for the info, have a couple questions.
1. My stove started popping my gfi outlet last night after a clean out and start up. The stove lit and was burning then kicked the gfi. Nothing has changed in configurations of appliances. If anything their is less on the circuit now than there was. Stove has been running for 2 weeks without issue. All my outlets are gfi since I am in a manufactured home.

2.I have my settings on 2/9/1 and still after 7 hours or so end up with a pile of pellet red coals in the burn pit put the pellets are piled half way up the auger. Is this normal. Tech support mentioned possibly a bad board? I am the third owner of the stove and have gave it a much needed and thorough cleaning replacing gaskets and vaccuming.

Thanks again.
 
sounds like the heat exchangers are blocked up somewhat , behind the impingement plate is about a 2X2 inch opening , try snaking a smaller diameter hose attached to a vacuum to the left and especially to the right to try to get down deep into this area behind the firewall. we may be able to pull any buildup out that way.
