Applies to: older 24-inch EDW and IDW Dacor dishwashers, Epicure and Distinctive
What is flagged: relay closure on the power board is not seen by the controller
What the message cannot tell you
The controller does not run a continuity or function test on every component. Because of that, F2 points at a circuit rather than a single part. The manual leaves the follow-up to a technician and lists nothing for owners to try.
Compare with these codes
F1 reports the inlet valve, while F3 reports the heater, which also sits on the power side. F4 concerns the drain pump.

Model compatibility: Dacor reuses codes across series and model years, so F2 / F-2 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F2 is a circulation pump or drying fan fault in which no relay closure registers on the power board.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
