Hi there!
If your monitor heater isn’t turning on or heating properly, there could be a few common issues to check out. Start with the thermostat—make sure it’s set correctly and functioning as it should. Next, check the electrical connections to ensure the heater is plugged in and getting power, and that there are no tripped breakers. If your heater uses fuel, low fuel levels or a clogged fuel line might be the culprit. Also, look at the ignition system—if the igniter is dirty or worn out, it may not be lighting the fuel properly. Blocked air intake or exhaust pipes can also prevent the heater from running, so make sure they’re clear. Additionally, dirty burners or air filters can cause problems with heat production, so cleaning those may help. Lastly, check that the fan is working to distribute the heat and that any safety switches or sensors aren’t malfunctioning, as they can shut the system down if they detect an issue. If none of these fixes solve the problem, it might be time to call a professional for a deeper inspection.
