Hello. I acquired a Whitfield Pellet stove for my neighbor. The Control Panel powers on for 2 seconds then off. After that the unit is dead. The #1 Heat output light comes on and then 2 seconds later you here a click in the the CP and the light goes out. I checked the continuity of all the switches and they test normal open or closed as shown on the schematic. However, the low pressure switch tests closed when the schematic shows normally open. I disconnected the switch and then powered the unit on and had the same result. I checked the low pressure switch and it is opening and closing. ( You can put a small screwdriver in the the diaphram and gently push the switch open and closed.) I even plugged the stove back in and moved the low pressure switch and had no change. If it is the control panel itself is there a way to test it? BTW the fuse in the CP is not blown. Both fan motors and auger motor test ok. Anything else? I am willing to get a new CP for my neighbor but I just want to be sure before I drop $$$ on it. THe CP part number is PSC120A-3605. The stove was new in 1999.
Thank you for all the help. This is her only source of heat and the NW winter is on the way. Thanks again.
