    Why won't the flame effect start on my Dimplex Stove?

      James MillerAug 16, 2025
      If the Dimplex Stove flame effect won't start, first ensure the mains plug is correctly plugged into the wall socket. Then, check that the water tank is full and that there is water in the sump. Also, verify that the low voltage connector is properly connected, and that the Transducer Unit is correctly seated in the sump's molded recess.

    How to increase the flame effect on a Dimplex OAKHURST OKT20?

      If the flame effect on your Dimplex Stove is too low, first increase the flame level by slowly turning the control knob to the left. If that doesn't solve the issue, the metal disc in the transducer might be dirty; clean it with the soft brush provided. Also, make sure the wire from the Transducer Unit is directed to the back of the sump, sitting in the side slot.

      If the main lamps aren't working and there are no flames or smoke, it could be due to no water in the water tank. Refill the water tank following the instructions under Maintenance, ‘Filling the water tank’. Also, check that the plug is correctly connected to the wall socket and that Switch ‘A’ is in the ‘ON’ position.
