My Quadrafire CB1200 will only feed pellets if I reset or take wire off of Snap Disk #2. I have tried to jump around it but that doesn’t work either. Red light is on and calling for heat. Amy suggestions?

. Snap Disc #2 (Thermostat Override) 200°FSnap Disc #2 is also located on the right side of the appliance between snap disc #1 and the convection blower. There are 2 yellow wires connected to it. This snap disc will turn off the feed system, which will turn off the appliance if an overfire condition should occur or if the convection blower should fail to operate.

Hello,
New to this. I was gifted a Traditions T300p about 14 years ago from brother-in-law. It's run well until 4 months ago. The stove had a reghular cleaning by my stove guy that i've used before.
Issue;
I start the stove, and after startup, the pellets feed erratically. He has been helpfull trying to diagnose. We dont think its the auger, its not new pellet size, not igniter. I think i cleaned the photoeye the other day. I can trun it off, then back on, and it acts like startup and feeds a good amount of pellets.
Any ideas before I drop $500 for a control board
thanks

I tried to get to the photoeye. It's in a tuff spot without taking entire stove apart.
Its on right now. Startup was as 5:30pm, EST, pellets are feeding but now enough compared to the past.
now a good flame.
I'll have to check the manual for the vaccum/pressure switch. It is available from "Stove Parts 4 Less".
I ggodled the part number on the control board and its reveals a Traditions T300P

My stove guy cleaned it well to the chiney cap, I was here with him. We pnly use it for cold nights when I'm off. We dont run it for primary heat. It's runninh now 90 minutes, pellets just dropped buy not as much as in the past.
Control board would be my last ditch effort. Open frame auger motors do wear out, your lucky its lasted this long
