I got a used quadrafire cb1200. The exhaust blower doesn’t run for the 18 minute shutdown but shuts off the same time as the auger causing a smoke out. What tells the exhaust to run for 18 minutes after shut down?
 
Sounds like a circuit board problem. Try unplugging it for a few minutes and try again. I had to have my circuit board rebuilt last year,.....different brand.

How old is the stove? when you plug the stove in the exhaust blower should run for about 12 min then shut off. if the stove has been running and is shut down for cleaning (pull jumper from tstat or turn stat down) it should run until the #1 snap disc cools and shuts it off. it should not be connected to an auger operation at all.
