I need some technical advice:
The automatic igniter rod in my Lopi Leyden (2008) died in the middle of last winter. Thanks to the forums here I was able to learn how to use the propane torch method to start the fire. I ordered a replacement igniter rod towards the end of last winter but didn't replace it until now as I didn't want to power down the stove for that long during the winter months and I got busy over the summer.
When I replaced it, I plugged in the two existing wires that come from the control panel and tried to light the fire, but the rod didn't get hot. So I switched the wire connection and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions on troubleshooting something I may be missing? Everything else is working on the stove (blower, exhaust fan etc.). Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks!
Mike
