Dacor Microwave display not working

If your Dacor microwave display is not working, start by checking whether the control panel buttons respond. A defective control module is the most likely cause when the buttons are also unresponsive. If your Dacor microwave has no separate display board, the touchpad and control panel may be faulty instead. When the microwave screen is blank or only some segments are missing, the main control board or display board could be defective. A partially working display more commonly points to the display board, while a display that is completely dark can involve either board. Also confirm the microwave is plugged in and that the wall receptacle has power by testing it with another small appliance, then check the circuit breaker. If the control board has power but the digital display remains off, the control board may need replacement. Enter your Dacor microwave model number to find the exact control module, touchpad and control panel, main control board, display board, or control board for your appliance. Opening the outer cabinet requires caution because the high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after the microwave is unplugged. It must be properly discharged before interior work, so use a qualified technician if you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures.

01 - Dacor Microwave Control Module

A malfunctioning display could be caused by a defective control module. Try pressing each of the buttons on the control panel. If none of the buttons are responding correctly, it is likely the control module is defective and will need to be replaced.

05 - Incoming Power Problem

Confirm the microwave is plugged in and there is power at the wall receptacle. You can plug another small appliance into the receptacle to confirm there is power. If there is no power, confirm the circuit breaker has not tripped.
