I had a bad auger motor in my Vistaflame vf100 pellet stove. I replaced the motor and now the auger continuously runs instead of only when the light comes on for it to run. Anyone have and ideas or have dealt with this before?? Thank you!
 
never worked on a vistaflame but looking at the wiring diagram it is most likely one of three possible issues, bad control board or shorted wire feeding power to the motor even when the control board turns off power to the motor, or another is possibly putting back on the wrong wires than what belongs on the motor.
