Dacor Oven light is out

Is your Dacor oven light out? The problem may be the oven control board, although this is not the most common failure. The control board supplies voltage to the oven light bulb or light assembly, so use a multimeter to check whether power reaches the light socket or assembly. If the light switch has continuity but no voltage reaches the light, the control board may need replacement. Next, inspect the light assembly, since some Dacor models do not sell its components separately. A burned-out oven light bulb or failed halogen lamp can also cause an oven light not working symptom. Test the bulb or lamp for continuity, or install it in an identical socket. If power reaches the socket but the oven light still will not work, the light socket may be defective. A faulty light housing can produce the same result when power reaches the socket or assembly but the bulb or light board is good. Always disconnect power before servicing electrical components. Enter your Dacor model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific range, stove, or oven, including the correct oven light bulb, light assembly, socket, housing, or control board.

01 - Dacor Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board

The oven control board is used to send voltage to nearly all of the oven's electrical components including the lights. If the control board is defective, it may be unable to send voltage to the light bulb or light board, although this is not a common problem. You can use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is not reaching the light socket or light assembly and the light switch tests positive for electrical continuity when tested with a multimeter, then the control board is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

05 - Dacor Range/Stove/Oven Light Socket

Use a multimeter to test for power to the light socket. If the light socket is getting power, but the oven light won’t work, this indicates that the light socket is defective. If the light socket is defective, replace it.

06 - Dacor Range/Stove/Oven Light Housing

If you've determined the light bulb has not burned out or the light board appears to be functioning normally, it's possible that the light housing the bulb or board is installed in is faulty. Use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is reaching the socket or assembly, then it's likely the light housing is malfunctioning and will need to be replaced.
