What does it mean when the caution light comes on and it stops working? I bought this in 2011 and it has done this twice now in the past month.

I believe that means it's overheated and has tripped an internal safety breaker switch. It should reset itself when it cools down. Make sure there is nothing obstructing air to the unit and that the blower fan is operating ok.

This heater has an automatic shut off that will set off your caution light and shut down the machine and keep it off if anything blocks or overheats the grill. It will also keep the machine off if the machine has reached an abnormal internal temperature. I would email the manufactor.

I had not used the light except to test it. Many weeks later I used it in Maine and it was fine for a few times. Then suddenly light blinked on and off like a turn signal. I took out the batteries and set it aside. About a week later I put the same batteries back in and suddenly the light has been behaving. I have not used it much so I cannot rely on it. Someone in the comments section was critical of the switch. It is very inadequate, to be sure.

I think it means something is wrong. the red light should flash continually then the green light will come on occasionallyand be a solid light. -

Try putting in all new batteries. Normally, when the light starts to go on and off, it means the batteries need to be replaced. If new batteries do not stop the problem, the light is very likely to be defective.

Mine also stopped working. I had only used it a couple times, and for a brief time. At first I thought it was my electrical outlet since it happened so soon after I had purchased it. Very disappointing.

it uses water to spend an internal power supply and the chemicals in your water has caused the motor to lock up therefore not generating any electricity power the lights mine is making noise now and probably soon. It will stop as well

Yes. You need to reset & the yellow warning light will go out, then after around 50 miles will come back on again.

As I recall, it either means that the batteries are dying or it has gone over the max weight limit, but in my case it did it all the time and the company had to replace it. My new one works great now.

I'd say it means you have a bad one and need to return it... I like the light, so I think if you get a good one, you'll like it too. Good luck!

when you turn it on it is a hazard light till using it to turn and returns to a hazard light once done using it as a turn signal.hope that helps.

I had this issue before, and when asked a friend who had installed he same wire he said his does the same, however, and after 4 months my wire gave out and stopped working... when i got the replacement, the red (alert) light stayed off and only the green light is on unless there is a real alert.So I am not 100% sure if it is defective, but the red light should come on only when there is an alert.

The instruction say if both lights are out-replace the unit. I have noted twice so far one or two lights were out-so I checked the switch- yes it was off. Apparently on high loads of surge it will throw the switch off. Re set. This unit does instill a sense of security and is about the best in the market, I have found. Good luck. Old Timer

My first one had the same problem as yours. Red light on all the time, and froze! I returned it and bought another one hoping it was a defective piece.... My second one start to show signs of defective also! and this one I can't return b/c past return period. DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT is my recommendation.

I find it interesting that this question came over my email a few days ago and I had also started having issues with my monitor too. For a few months when I turned on the monitor it would start going through the menus on its own sometimes changing the settings. More recently when I turned it on it would light up to start and then turn itself right off. The monitor worked pretty well for me up until about four months ago so it looks like once it passes a certain age or level of use it just stops working for some people

It is possible that the photo sensor is turning the light on and off. Disconnect the photo sensor and see what happens.
