Replace a failed stack member 3750

Question

The master switch 3750- 48 in a 3 member stack failed today. Immediately the second switch assumed the role of master. We powered off the faulty switch and replaced it with another same model and OS version with a default configuration. This changed the status and now the stack member 3 shows as Provisioned ( the other two - the new master and the replacement) are shown as ready in show switch.
All ports on the new switch (Member 1) are working normally and same on master (Member 2). Ports on member 3 (shown as provisioned) have no access. How do I move it to ready status?
How do I check if the replacement switch has received the configuration from the stack? Does ready status mean that the config has been received?
Thanks very much.
