Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C-F0 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the knob to Off and restart the oven.

02

If C-F0 stays, cut every bit of power to the stove for 30 seconds or longer before switching it back on.

03

If the code still returns, book a visit.

Still there?

It usually turns into control board and display repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

C-F0 is not a problem with the burners or the oven sensor. It is a link between two boards inside the stove.

Questions
about C-F0.

Can I clear C-F0 myself?
Turn the knob to Off and restart the oven. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What are the Main and Sub PBA on a Dacor stove?
They are two circuit boards inside the stove that share the work of running it. C-F0 means the link between them dropped.
Can a loose connector cause C-F0 on a Dacor stove?
Yes. A harness between the boards that has worked loose gives the same code as a failed board, so it is checked first.
Why did C-F0 appear on my Dacor stove after it was moved?
Sliding a stove out can tug on the wiring behind it. Restart it; if C-F0 stays, book a visit so the harness can be checked.

Back to your everyday

Still showing C-F0?

Book with the code written exactly as the stove shows it, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or hot wiring — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
