  Devin AndersonSep 23, 2025
  If you are experiencing grinding or excessive noise with the heater off on your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace, it could be due to the flicker rod hitting or rubbing against internal components or a defective flicker motor. Ensure the rod is straight and mounted properly in the bracket, spinning freely away from other components. Replace if necessary. If the issue persists, replace the flicker motor.

  If the lights dim in the room when your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace is on, the unit is likely drawing close to the circuit's current rating. To fix this, move the unit to another outlet or install the unit on a dedicated 15 amp circuit.

  If your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace's heater is not turning on, it could be due to several reasons. First, check the wiring connections to ensure they are not loose. If the wiring is intact, the issue might be a defective switch board, heater assembly, relay board, or display/control board. In any of these cases, replacing the defective part is recommended.
