My whitfield II pellet stove motor runs non-stop. The stove feeds well, fan works etc. however, the motor never pause. It just keeps spinning. I had a problem last week and had to replace the fuse in the control board. I am trying to determine if it is the motor or the board (uggh) . Any help will be appreciated.
 
Which motor?, Combustion/exhaust or Convection/heat out front
Sounds like a "closed" low limit switch
