Maybe try unplugging it and then plug it back in...usually when the green light flashes it is because of the timer...it will automatically shut down after an hour then you have to power off and then on again....let me know if this helps if not we can try something else

I would unplug it and replug it in, and go through each step again. When I first started using it, I would forget and set the temperature first instead of last. Look for the blinking dot next to the temperature.

I have had that problem and find just unplugging it and then plugging it in again makes it come back to life. It has not been a good heating pad.

The crock will reset. It will not continue to cook until you start it again. Try unplugging it and plugging it back in. You will see that there is no memory function if power is lost.

Okay the flashing F is because the connection by the heating pad is not closed tightly. There is the plug that goes into the wall and then there is a white block area right up next to the heating pad. That block is unplugged (the heating pad from the electric plug not wall) make sure that this connection is pushed in tight. Might even try to unplug that piece and plug it in to each other again. It should correct the flashing F if I have made any sense.

Yes and I kept moving the cables around the cables and wraps back with electrical tape. Started working but I unhooked every night. A few times I had come in and it was off but bed was hot. I really did not think it was so. Last week everything in my room was off but the room had a funny smell. Machine was turned off but this machine still burned up everything thank God I can in the next day everything had melted. Long story short send it back or chuck it. I am being honest. Thank God cause I was getting ready for 10 day vacation. Unplug every day. Problems starts get rid not worth it.

Mine did this also, after only a few weeks! maybe heated too much? maybe not well constructed? if you have the receipt, return it!

There should be a little red light that turns on and it flashes until it goes solid that means its ready. If the light doesn't turn on and it doesn't get hot then it doesn't work. I would send it back for a new one. There should be a warrenty.

No, a light should come on. Should heat up instantly. Something's defective. Too bad - take it back?

Nope... You're not missing anything. It should heat up, and do so quickly. I suspect that your ceramic heating element has broken. I'd either swap it out with the spare, or contact the manufacturer. Good luck.

Mine does not flash but get unreal, scary hot. I never leave it plugged in.

Do you mean your's won't heat up or are you afraid it will ignite? Be sure your thermacell isn't empty and screwed on tight. OR it could be the Cordless that isn't working right. I had to replace the cordless a couple years ago because it was worn out...could that be the problem? First check the cell. Good luck.

You bet!! Replace it as soon as you can. The hot could cause sparks, then fire! Good luck!

on teh turbo model the flashing light usually indicates that the iron is on. if there is no heat & the light is flashing you probably have a bad iron.

Peggy, It goes into an over heat mode and needs to cool down. Unplug it for a few minutes and then plug it back in. It should be good to go.

Same issue I had with first unit, called the company and they exchanged and we've never had anymore issues. It was a weird issue. What is the codes that are flashing on the screen? The company was great and responded quickly. We use the heater every time we camp.

I've been having the same problem. The light starts off bright but by the time I get home (4 miles=30 minutes) the light is stuck in dim flashing mode and won't turn off. I can't tell if its power, cold, rain, or turbulence related.
