Dacor Range vent hood fan or light not working

If your Dacor range vent hood fan or light is not working, start with the thermal fuse, the most likely cause when the hood has lost power to both functions. Test the thermal fuse for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if it is open. If the fuse is good, check the fan switch, which may prevent voltage from reaching the fan motor, followed by the on-off switch, which controls power to the light or fan motor. A defective micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch can also cause a Dacor vent hood fan not working or a vent hood light not working. Test each switch for continuity and replace any switch that fails the test. Before servicing the hood, disconnect power at the circuit breaker and use proper electrical safety precautions. Whether you are fixing a Dacor range hood fan, hood light, or both, enter your model number to find the exact replacement thermal fuse, fan switch, on-off switch, micro switch, switch kit, or rocker switch for your specific Dacor range vent hood.
