The LED light that illuminates the stones will randomly turn on by itself. When I came home last night at 6pm the light was on. I shut the unit off using the remote. This morning I woke at 12:30am and it was on. I turned it off and woke again at 2:00am and the light was on. Each time I clear the timer before switching off. This will happen randomly. It may not do this for a week or so, then it goes on again. In between, I have not been using the unit. I don’t know how to clear the settings on the remote or on the unit to stop this from happening.

To stop the LED light from randomly turning on by itself in the SimpliFire SF-BI30-E, try the following steps:

1. Reset the Unit:
- Unplug the appliance.
- Wait 5 minutes.
- Plug it back in and turn it on.

2. Check Remote Control Interference:
- Make sure the remote control is not sending unintended signals.
- Keep it away from other electronic devices that may cause interference.

3. Inspect Manual Controls:
- Ensure the manual switch is not stuck or faulty.

If the issue continues, unplug the unit and contact a dealer for service.

I have a Simplifire AF-WMS38-BK which was bought in 2016. I will turn the flame on and it works well. Then when I turn heater on, half flame disappears, no heat but **** blows. Then I need to unplug for several hours and the same thing happens. About the 8 attempts later everything is working fine. After 10-15 minutes it starts acting up again. Is it the control board? Is it worth replacing the board?

The provided context does not mention the control board as a cause of the issue where the flame disappears and no heat is produced when the heater is turned on. However, it does describe a temperature cutoff switch that turns the heater off if it overheats. Before replacing the control board, try resetting the heater by turning it off, unplugging it for 5 minutes, then plugging it back in and turning it on. If the issue persists, further diagnosis may be needed to determine if the control board is faulty.
