Heat works, flames are dark
When the heater warms the room but the flame picture has gone dark, the light source is the first suspect. Units with small bulbs can lose them one by one without anyone noticing, until the last one goes and the display turns black. Some models also light the ember bed separately, which helps tell a bulb fault from a board fault.
LED units have light assemblies instead, and makers replace those as a whole rather than repairing them. We find out which kind yours has, test it and order the part by your serial number.

The flicker rod and its motor shaft
Many flame effects use a rod with reflective strips or ribbons that turns slowly in front of the light source. The turning breaks the light into moving patterns that look like flames. The rod is pushed onto the shaft of a small motor.
Dimplex notes the rod can slip off the motor shaft, and when it does, the flames freeze. Reseating it is a quick repair once the unit is open. We also check the rod's bushing at the other end and the rod itself for bends, since a bent rod wobbles and makes the flames stutter. Once reseated, the rod is watched through a few minutes of running to be sure it stays put.
When the flame motor itself fails
If the rod is seated and the flames still do not move, the motor may have failed. Some motors hum without turning, others go silent. A meter test at the motor's connection shows whether power is reaching it.
Power arriving at a motor that does not turn means the motor is replaced. No power means the problem is upstream, at the board or a connector. We replace the motor with the maker's part for your model and check the flame speed setting afterward, since some units let you adjust how fast the flames move. Motors are small and usually quick to swap once the unit is open.
Pulling an insert out of the firebox
An electric insert sits in an old firebox, usually with a trim surround. To repair it properly, the trim comes off and the insert slides forward onto the hearth, with its cord followed so it is not strained.
The unit is opened and tested there, repaired and closed up. Before it goes back in, we check the cord for wear and the firebox for anything that may have fallen behind the insert. Once it is back, it is tested in place, and the trim is refitted so it sits tight against the fireplace face. The hearth is covered while the insert sits on it, so neither is scratched.
