Dimplex BF39STP/DXP

[Joethecrow]

I have a Dimplex model #BF39STP,DXP electric fireplace I'm trying to install. The diagrams I have are not very good, and I'm having a little trouble. Out of the fireplace it has 2 blue wires for the flame, a black L1, a red L2, and two other red wires. I wire the L1 and L2 to power supply, but what do I do with the other 2 red wires, On some of the diagrams I have, they are used for thermostat, or a heater wall switch. I have tried the wall switch, and it works perfectly fine for about 2 minutes, then it shuts off, and the red indicator light comes on. I know it's something simple, but I'm stuck! I would appreciate all the help I could get, THANKS

thread is still open ?

what voltage are you hooking it up to ?
are you using plug or switch as disconnect ?
is the thermostadt on the unit or did you install a wall thermostadt ? how did you hook up the thermostadt ?

wiring diagram is on page 8

voltage selector switch not set for actual line voltage? (120 or 240).

blower motor not working, heat builds up and cuts out thermal overload?

I guess the original question was kind of cloudy, sorry, i'm new to all this computer stuff! I guess the real question is I need to know about the internal wiring, things that can go wrong because that's the only thing it can be, It's pretty straight forward as far as the external wiring. I've checked the voltage selector. I'm wiring it to 220v. It works great if I switch it to 110v, Thanks for the suggestions.
