Would love to know if anybody's "been here, done that" with an old
Dimplex Night-Storage Heater, circa 1986.
Is it possible to replace these thermostats?

It sounds as if the only thing that is certain is that the heater doesn't
work. This could be due to any of a number of reasons

Just to add that it's possible to replace just about anything in these
heaters. I've replaced thermostats a couple of times - look for a service
agent at http://www.dimplex.co.uk/consumer/aftercare.htm in order to
acquire the part. From memory of the innards everything is fairly sturdy,
although everyone advises to take care with the porcelain connector blocks.

Good luck
