Hello,
-15 and falling here in northern, PA and my coat stove decided today was the day to stop working. :no1: Hubby cleaned out hopper, cleaned pipe, etc.... Any other suggestions? He also just moved the forks from 2 1/4 inch to 2 inches, like I read in here today was the correct measurements.

Pull feeder plug from stove controller and see if feeder will then run straight from wall outlet and report back.

When all else fails then read the manual, but seriously, see if you can read the troublshooting guide in manual.
There's manuals online if you need to download one.

Turn the test function on and see if the feed is actually taking place,open side door to see the fork rotate.I had new potentiometers(the base of the knobs you turn) put in the board and my stove works better now.
You can get them on ebay for about 20 bucks.
