Possible Causes

Corrupted EEPROM on ERC, Incorrect or failed configuration data, Power surge damage to control board memory

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF power at the breaker before handling the control board.

  • Power reset: Leave the unit powered OFF for at least 10 minutes, then restore power. Sometimes a full reset clears transient memory errors.
  • Check model configuration: Some Dacor controls require model-specific configuration after replacement. If F12 appeared after a board change, verify that the correct configuration procedure was followed (see service manual).
  • Replace ERC: If F12 persists, the ERC memory is likely corrupted. Replace the ERC with the exact Dacor part number for your model.

Configuration errors can cause unsafe operation; do not bypass or ignore F12.
