Why is my Dimplex DWF3651 Indoor Fireplace making grinding noises with the heater off?
- L
  Leslie MooreSep 23, 2025
  If you notice grinding or excessive noise when the heater is off on your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace, the flicker rod might be hitting or rubbing against internal components. Ensure the rod is straight and properly mounted in the bracket, spinning freely away from other components. Replace it if necessary. Alternatively, the flicker motor could be defective, requiring replacement.

  If your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace doesn't turn on in Remote Mode, refer to the Operation Section for proper operation.
