The electric went out at my daughter's home. Her boyfriend turned started the generator. When the electric came back on the pellet stove would not light. He said it blinked 5 times. I unplugged it to reset it. However, now it will not do anything (auger, blower, ect.) The lights come on the control panel, but nothing else happens. What is my best course of troubleshooting?
 
Have you tried putting it in self test mode?
 
That’s odd the lights come on but nothing runs in test mode…even if the fuse on the board went the lights would not come on. You may have to remove the board and look for a burnt area
 
The 5-blink just indicates it didn't light within the specified time frame and it will shut off after that and it needs to be reset.

Did you turn it off, unplug it for a couple of minutes, then replug it back in and turn on to reset?

Control panel appears to be fine. Got the room blower to work in test mode. Took pressure switch off and jumped it. Auger and room fan worked in test mode but not the combustion fan. Replaced pressure switch with a new one. Only room fan worked in test mode. I’m at a loss.
 
Replaced combustion motor. Now all motors work in test mode. Unfortunately I could not get internal fan blade off, so I had to cut it off.
That is typically what happens and what most do. Glad you got it resolved.
