Thanks for the quick reply.Three seconds on and one second off doesn't sound like its not running enough. Does your board show HR5 or HR9 for the highest heat range? Are you running it in auto? Also what is the feed rate on HR1? How long have you had the stove and did it run good before?
Is the fire going out? What are your DF (draft settings)?

Ihave notowned the stove long.
Bought it to refirbish and resell.
It had a defective circuit board with pressure switch circuit inoperative.
Heatwave electronics repaired it
The original owner tried to jump the circuit board to make it run
6 components were replaced.
HR 5 max stove
On auto, factory default draft setting
I have not changed the draft setting.
The fire will practally go out even with draft slide closed on factory max feed of 5.
And HR above 3.
Rsn OK on 3 but not very hot.
Low feed set to 2 (factory setting and max allowable for safe operation)
US Srove tech on phone said board replacement.
I have a 4 button 6039 HR 9 STOVE tht runs great.
Heated my 900 sq ft house from Nov-Feb in Indy for $500 last year until I got a new furnace.
Waiting on a call from Heatwave to see what he thinks.
When I get time I will post my experiece repairing a Johnstown J2000.
Continued from above.
Draft motor not up to stuff because at full throttle (high draft dialed back to 6) and draft slide allthe way open I get a noticable vibration that goes away at less draft slide opening.
Also changed DF to your recomedation on previous thread 230-280 if I remember correctly.
Will try different draft motor later today.
Looking for the clean burn I can get with the'39 .Igot some Somersets last year and the ash was as white as snow and fine as powder.
You are definitely starving for air. Do you have it hooked up to an OAK? Is the 6039 and 6041 both in the same building?
The 230-280 is what I'm using on my stove but I'm burning 100% corn. Before you go trying another exhaust fan you might want to bump those numbers up. Length of exhaust pipe, size and number of 45's and 90's, a lot of variables that could be very different from my set up.
What I did with mine was to get the lowest number HR and DF I could with a decent burn, then adjusted up until every number in between gave a clean burn. It takes time but is well worth it as there will be small adjustments season to season, pellet manufactures and types of pellets but once dialed in those numbers will remain close for a good burn year after year.
