Dacor Oven Error Code C24

Error Code C24 on your Dacor oven indicates a specific issue related to the Ambient Temperature Probe. This error occurs when the control board detects an open circuit in the ambient temperature probe or an open thermistor on the control board.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of the error:

1. Ambient Temperature Probe Open:

• The ambient temperature probe is a crucial component responsible for sensing the temperature in the oven environment.
• “Open” in this context implies that there is a break or discontinuity in the circuit of the ambient temperature probe.
• This could be due to a damaged probe, a faulty connection, or a wiring issue.

2. Control Board Open Thermistor Detected:

• The control board in the oven contains a thermistor, which is a temperature-sensing device.
• “Open thermistor detected” means that the control board is not receiving the expected resistance signal from the thermistor.
• This could be due to a malfunctioning thermistor, a wiring problem, or an issue with the control board itself.

What to Do:

• Check the Ambient Temperature Probe:

  • Inspect the ambient temperature probe for any visible signs of damage, such as breaks or frayed wires.
  • Ensure that the probe is securely connected to its designated terminals.

• Inspect Wiring:

  • Examine the wiring between the ambient temperature probe and the control board for any issues.
  • Look for loose connections, damaged insulation, or any signs of wear.

• Test the Thermistor:

  • If the error persists, the thermistor on the control board may be faulty.
  • A multimeter can be used to test the resistance of the thermistor. Consult your oven’s technical documentation for the expected resistance values at various temperatures.

• Professional Assistance:

  • If you are unable to identify or resolve the issue, it is advisable to seek the assistance of a qualified technician or contact Dacor’s customer support for further guidance.

Remember to prioritize safety when dealing with electrical components, and if in doubt, seek professional assistance to ensure accurate diagnosis and resolution of the error code C24 on your Dacor oven.
