Dacor Oven Error Code C25
Error Code C25 on a Dacor oven indicates two potential issues:
-
Ambient Temperature Probe Shorted:
- Description: The oven has an ambient temperature probe that measures the temperature in the cooking area. A short circuit in this probe has been detected.
- Possible Causes:
- Wiring Issue: The wiring connected to the ambient temperature probe may be damaged or improperly connected.
- Faulty Probe: The ambient temperature probe itself may be malfunctioning or damaged.
-
Control Board Shorted Thermistor Detected:
- Description: The control board of the oven has detected a short circuit in the thermistor, which is a temperature-sensitive resistor that monitors and regulates the oven’s temperature.
- Possible Causes:
- Control Board Issue: There may be a malfunction in the oven’s control board, causing a short circuit in the thermistor.
- Thermistor Problem: The thermistor itself may be faulty or damaged, leading to a short circuit.
Troubleshooting Steps:
-
Inspect Wiring:
Visually inspect the wiring connected to the ambient temperature probe. Look for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. If issues are found, address them accordingly.
-
Check Ambient Temperature Probe:
Test the ambient temperature probe for continuity using a multimeter. If a short circuit is detected, replace the ambient temperature probe.
-
Examine Thermistor:
Inspect the thermistor for any visible damage. Test its resistance using a multimeter. If it shows a short circuit, replace the thermistor.
-
Control Board Inspection:
Inspect the control board for any visible signs of damage, such as burnt components or loose connections. If issues are found, the control board may need repair or replacement.
