F13 facts
Meaning: control panel failure.
Remedy listed: replace the power board, a technician task.
Applies to: ER30D, ER36D and ER48D ranges, an older series.
A caution from the manual
Its guide admits that it cannot cover every possible failure. Before arranging a visit, confirm that the main power switch is on and that the panel has not been locked.
Call (415) 687-5926 from San Francisco or the wider Bay Area with F13 and the range model number to hand. The Dacor range repair page gives the background.
Model compatibility: Dacor reuses codes across series and model years, so F13 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
