I purchased my Optimus H-4439 Oscillating Heater about a couple of months ago. I started off working fine, but now the alarm shut-off keeps coming on before the heat has activated. Can you help?

SOURCE: Alarm light staying on.

I have the same problem. I removed the center panel on the back of the dish and found a fuse inside a white insulating sleeve. The fuse is open, preventing the current from reaching the heating coils. On the fuse it says 121 C. and 15 A.; I assume that it is designed to blow if the temp. of the dish exceeds 121 centigrade or the current exceeds 15 Amps. I don't see any reason to believe that either has happened so I suspect that these fuses just spontaneously fail. Now I just need to find a source for new ones. I wouldn't recommend jumping the fuse as it could lead to a fire.

SOURCE: alarm light came on. no heat. still occilates

I have only had mine for 3 weeks when it did the same thing, I looked up and called Optimus Enterprizes @ 714 956-1300 they told me they warrenty it for 3 years. Send it back and they will repair or replace it. I am near them so I took it to their office @ 2201 E. Winston Rd. Anaheim, Calif. 92806. When I walked into the office the girl took my heater into the back and came out with a new one. No questions asked. I did not even have to show my Ebay paper work.
SO my solution is send it back.
Good luck

SOURCE: optimus heater h-4438

Check on the heater coil using the multi-tester. Set it at Ohms 1 x 10 position.
1. Switch it off and disconnect it .
2. Disassemble the electric heater.
3. Put the multi-tester probe (red and black) at each
end of the heater coil.
4. If the reading is almost zero, then it is okey.
Otherwise, you have to replace it.
5. Then, reassemble the electric heater.
6. Plug it back to the electric outlet, and switch on.

SOURCE: 2011 Ford Edge was purchased

I had the same problem after 5 months of purchasing a 2011 Edge. The Oil Engine Pressure light comes on and stays on after driving 10 minutes and stopping for gas- it turns off shortly after I start driving again. I had a 2007 Edge as well and never had this problem. I just took the 2011 Edge back to the dealer. They could not duplicate the problem and instead reset all computer settings. The next day the same Oil Engine Pressure light came back on. Anyone out there with any suggestions?

Why does it shut off completely and has to be manually turned back on?

Probably a safety feature to keep it from getting too hot. temperatures above a certain level could easily start a fire.
This unit has a temperature control with will turn it of after a certain temperature is reached it also has a timer that will turn it off.
It might also be a malfunction in one of those controls.

Sounds like the safety thermostats on the machine is tripping because the machine is overheating or the circuit breaker is tripping because machine needs more amperage.

I have a 800/1200 oscillating dish heater (optimus h-4438) i have an alarm light on it so it has stopped working. up to this point i have had no problem with it - it has been perfect. can you tell me...

Initial quality is questionable. Within a few days buying the unit the buttons stopped working. I was about to return it. I took a chance and I opened the unit and figured out the problem and fixed it buy tightening some screws and repositiong the circuit board. I am not sure how many would be inclined to do all that.

I have a lasko tower ceramic heater that keeps shutting down.

mine does the same thing every year. I just clean out the dust from the vents on the back of the heater so the heater can breath otherwise it could get too hot and the safety fetcher kick in and makes the heater stop working.

Electrical problems with my 96 honda accord

This happens because the removal of the current to the computer or CPU gets de-programed. You may be able to solve the problem (if it comes up gain ) by disconnecting the negative cable with the engine off. Then renstalling it back after a minute.This will reprogram the computer.
