Dimplex duo heat 300n storage heater Spare Parts

[Andy mcgill]

Hello,
Been remodelling my sitting room and have moved my dimplex duo heat 300n storage heater.
This has not been switched on since the end of last winter.
So last night,when switched on for the first, it did not come on.
Tested power from E7 and it is fine.
The comfort heat panel works off a 24/7 supply and is working fine.
Stripped the heater today and checked elements and stats which are fine.
I fitted a charge control board to this a few years ago, so I guess this has failed again.
Only problem is I can't find any on the internet. They are all out of stock including dimplex,s web site.
Does anyone know where I can pick one up or anyone who repairs the PCB.
Any help would be appreciated as i am freezing as I type this.

Dimplex have been having trouble with PCB suppliers recently, we had to wait months for a load of commercial fan heaters as they had no PCBs to complete manufacturing them. We also recently had problems finding the same PCB you require and had to ask around several suppliers. The PCBs used in these heaters are not known for their reliability so demand is likely to be high this time of year!

If you run out of ideas, you can chuck it in the post to me. My appliance PCB repair success rate is about 95%.

Thanks for that mate,going to call dimplex tomorrow.
These things are not cheap so how much ( roughly) does a repair cost.

Haven’t all these spare parts been removed from sale due to Lot20? I can’t buy parts in my area (thanks god ?)

Wonder what actually goes wrong on the PCB and whether they are standard devices.

 

[freddo]

I would expect the duo range to be Lot 20 compliant. Wasn't that the whole point of them when they first came out?

I can't reply to your private message Andy, as the conversation has been locked! I'm having problems at the moment posting threads and replies to threads. I would only be charging the cost of components and return shipping.

A very decent offer.

Thanks mate,
Got up this morning and the heater was working.
Had all the wiring disconnected when a looking for a fault,so it maybe was a bad connection.
Here's hoping.
Thanks to all that replied

Hi, are you still repairing these modules? I have two failed ones and would rather get repaired than throw them out.....
Many thanks
JC
