update...woke up today to a cold house. Stove went out again and there is no obvious reason for it. Un-burnt coal fed down the grate and into the ash pan. Kids didn't mess with it this time.

hopefully you're back up and running? if not, did you find anything wrong?
Removing the ash will let more airflow on the uncovered holes in the grates and probably not enough thru the burning coal to keep it going, might be why it went out? or could have jammed pusher plate somehow and it didn't push any coal to keep it going.

I know this is an old thread.But,I had the same issue on my Pioneer.It ended up being a bad gasket on the feeder grate.
