We can't find a detailed view of the rear of the unit. Is there any way to replace the igniter without pulling the stove out? If we have to, we have to, but I thought I'd check prior to attempting THAT!

Haven't tried to shove the stove around in the opening (pretty close fit), but I think it may not be bolted down. I assume with the weight of the unit, it could be a possibility.

If we DO have to pull it out, any tricks to realigning the flue connections when we put it back?

Loc: Oregon 		You will need to have access to the back of the stove remove the auger motor off the screw auger using a allen wrench now you will see the back of the igniter located in the center bottom of the fire wall (be sure to unplug the stove) carefully using a socket turn the igniter counter clock wise careful not to strip the threads to re-install reverse process. Before you attempt to replace the igniter check the fuse first and also using a volt meter be sure there is power to the igniter the igniter may be good it may only be a blown fuse.
