After 3 years of no issues, the main base now overheats and shuts on and off every 5-15 minutes. Temp reaches 45°C. Why would this happen now and what might I do about it?

"Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

Yes, several times. I'm in the Philippines and power is intermittent, unstable. I think that took its toll and inner components suffered. It's all closed up so not a dust issue. Evening it drops to 40°C and it doesn't act up anymore. Maybe I'll move it in front of the aircon or turn a fan to it to keep it cool
