I have an englander 25 PDVC/ 55-SHP10/ 55-TRP10 .

Things I have done-
Looking from the back with cover off

Replaced the right vacuum switch on and hose with clamps

Replaced hose on left vacuum switch with clamps

Changed the augur motor on the bottom with a 120v/60h 1rpm ccw motor. (The one I took out says 115v/60h. I think this may be the issue.)

Replaced blower motor.



I cleaned it out blew off all the connections with some duster I even paid someone 100 bucks. I still can't figure out why it keeps stopping.
 
115/120 doesn’t make a big difference, that is just what the company tested the motor with. Most of the USA varies from 115-127 volts but most are made to work in that range. Was a leaf blower used to clean stove and vent pipe? Englanders want to be clean to work right.

Can you clarify by what you mean it "keeps stopping?" These stoves are pretty simple but as Ssyko said, they like to be CLEAN.

I think....The problem may be in the incompatible voltage of the new motor or a blockage in the system. Check the temperature sensors, vacuum sensors, wiring and try to return the old motor for a test.
 
All AC motors are based on 115-127VAC. @60hz. Guaranteed there is a clog
