How to fix a Dimplex DS5603 that does not turn on manually?
If your Dimplex Stove isn't turning on manually, it could be due to several reasons. First, refer to the Operation Section. Check the fuse/breaker panel for incoming voltage from the electrical wall socket. Also, check wiring connections for any loose wiring. The On/Off or 3-Position Switch might be defective (replace it, depending on the model). Finally, the Remote Control Receiver could be defective (replace it and initialize with the Remote Control).
Why does my Dimplex DS5603 Stove heater turn off after a couple of minutes?
