Arduino e workshop4

good morning,
I am making a syringe heater. I have the screen (gen4-ULCD-32DT-AR) connected with Arduino. A thermocouple and a 12V heating element is connected to the Arduino. I power the Arduino with an external 12V jack. initially the screen works, after a few minutes it starts to reset continuously saying "mounting". I cannot understand the problem. I would like to heat the heating element by giving commands via the screen.
Thanks !
