      If your Dimplex Indoor Fireplace is making a grinding or excessive noise with the heater off, it could be due to the moving flicker rod hitting or rubbing against internal components. Ensure the rod is straight and mounted properly in the bracket, spinning freely away from other components. Replace if necessary. It may also be caused by a defective flicker motor, which should be replaced.
