The insulators that hold the wire in place keep sliding out.What can I do to prevent this?

To make it fit tighter, try slightly twisting one side of the metal slot that holds the insulator in place. Then slide the insulator back in. Be careful with the element, it can be brittle. This can also reduce noise from vibration.

This heater was installed by an electrician as part of a remodel job so I'm sure what 'insulators' and 'wire' you are referencing. I am not aware of any problems ... it seems to work fine.

Fortunately I have not had this problem. I have restrung the smaller unit. I suggest you take a heavy duty wire, like electrical ones you use wiring your house. Run it through the unit as a leader and pull the string through. Don't know if this will work but it is what I did before. Good luck. Frank

Just stay the insides of the cables with a lil conductor stay & wait for dry. If not contract seller

The only remedy I could recommend would be to get a new plug end & splice it onto the current cord. Of course, once you put electrical tape on it, the plug won't "roll" all the way back in.

Mark,I ran my wire in the expansion line in the drive way and sidewalk ( the wire is space about 3.5 feet apaert where i live) and put a some clear silicone calk over it. I've never had a problem and you can't even see that it there. Hope this helps.

Larry... maybe try replacing the batteries first. They slide out from the bottom of the switch.

Mine was a little loose, but it just needs to be tapped to snug up the connector tabs. Hope this makes sense and helps.

If you can keep all the units from not unplugging from each other. The connector tends to become loose from the plug that goes into the wall. I have thrown it out.

Mine got loose after about a month. I noticed it and added some electtical tape. Now its good

If working it back and forth don't work you might have to take it apart and pull the connectors apart, that hold the end of the tubes in there. If you have a pair of pliers you might be able to turn it at the end where the metal connectors are, make sure the electric is off and you wrap something around the tube, that rubber shelf liner will help grip the tube better then a cloth.

Keep your wires long, then push them down into slots w Very small screwdriver or similar, then trim ends of wires off

I really don't know as I'd mess around trying to fix it myself. Upon looking at my deni freshlock it appears the wire goes down inside. I would call amazon cust service & maybe see about a replacement. Sorry that's not much help.

If you're referring to the handle I had the same problem. They are very simple and cheaply made. The wires in the handle come away from the switch. Open the handle and tape wire harness into position. Worked for me. Hope this helps. Cheers.

Pull you deck out and check all you connections make sure none f them came loose and make sure all your wires are connected with wired caps instead of electrical tape. wire caps work much better and are less likely to com off

sometimes the top plastic comes loose , I've put two small pieces of gaffer tape to keep it in place. good luck

I had the same problem. The insulation on the wiring did not keep it cool causing it to melt then the wiring melted together. I cut out the connector and hard wired the positive to positive and negative to negative seperately and insulated them very heavily. I am now keeping "ALL" the wiring away from eachother to make sure that never happens again. I hand-made a bracket to keep the controler away from the battery to eliminate some of the heat problem and it seems to be working. Good luck.
