9.	Control board not sending power to air switch.	There should be a 5-volt current (approximately) going to the air
		switch after the stove has been on for 30 seconds.

10.	Air switch has failed (very rare).	To test the air switch, you will need to disconnect the air hose from
		the body of the stove. With the other end still attached to the air
		switch, very gently suck on the loose end of the hose (you may want
		to remove the hose entirely off the stove and the air switch first and
		make sure it is clear). If you hear a click, the air switch is working.
