So, What specifically is your post regarding, other than a probable rant??
Required information for relevant response would be at least the make of
the product [manufacturer] and the model [numbers, etc from rear panel of
unit] of the product. Additional would be the chassis number and any
pertinent diagnostic and troubleshooting details that you, or a
professional, has actually accomplished. Otherwise much of the information
is considered [generic] and probable responses will be similar.
Many of the offshore, inexpensive items, have neither manufacturer support
nor sources for specific components. Or they are so inexpensive that the
manufacturer requires these items to be returned to the vendor, i.e. if
still under their very limited warranty period. Cheers Gov.

Sounds like a thermal, and a can of freeze spray might do the
diagnostic. When you cold down the bad part, it'll start back up.

Without other data, this may take several steps, first chilling groups
of components. Then when you get lucky, chilling subsets, until you've
got it narrowed down.
