THE HEAT GOES OFF AFTER
It's only normal, if the heater reached the temperature level you have it set on. More than likely, the heater over heat switch shut the heater down. If that's the case, the heating element may simply need cleaning.
You can accomplish this by turning the unit OFF & Unplugging it. The heater element is under the stove and can be cleaned with a vacuum that has a hose and brush attachment. Even a crevice tool will help. The heaters over a short period of time, can get clogged with dust, lint, pet hair, etc. Keeping them clean will lengthen the longevity of the heater.
Hope this helps you. Please let me know.

Before call Dimplex Technical Service (888-346-7539) have your customer turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to OFF. Unplug the fireplace for 12 - 15 minutes. Once plugged back in, have them turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to On and then turn ON each function of the fireplace one at a time. If everything is performing as it should, the unit reset itself. However, if this becomes a recurring problem, they should contact Dimplex Technical Service.
Hope this helps you solve the problem for them.
My Electirc compact heater works however the
If you unplug it and look at how front glass is held in, and remove it, to access imitation logs etc and they should be removable. Under them you will see a small rod from side to side with foil ribbon like pieces attached to it. On one end there will be a small motor that turns that shaft/rod and it reflects the light to make it look like fire. Not uncommon for those motors to quit and need replacing. Write down make , model and serial number off back (usually) of your heater, and check owners manual for number to call for replacement parts. You may even find an appliance store in your area that has same motor. I would have motor tested before I replace it just to be sure. Also make sure that nothing on that shaft was wedged against something that would prevent it from turning .If you have difficulty with any of this, get back to me with that make and model number etc., and I'll follow up on it for you. Good Luck ! They're usually not that bad to work on.
The heater does not work, no heat
The relay to the heater coil is probably bad. Depending on how old your unit is will determine if it's worth repairing. Typically, this problem seems to occur after 2 to 3 years. Usually caused by a build up of dust and lint on the heater coil. Often time, the heater switch also plays a roll in this. Check out the Dimplex website for trouble shooting this problem.

Have a Dimplex dfb6016 electric heater that needed a new power cord. Bought one, but one end has the cord and blue wire fused together. I need help.
If the cord you purchased has a blue wire fused with the cord, you will need to cut off the fused portion and strip the insulation from the end of the blue wire. You will then need to connect the stripped end of the blue wire to the corresponding terminal on the new power cord.
If you are not comfortable doing this yourself, it is recommended to consult a qualified electrician or appliance repair technician to complete the wiring safely and correctly. It is important to ensure that the replacement power cord is compatible with your Dimplex dfb6016 electric heater to avoid any potential safety hazards.
