Error codeF2 / F-2
ApplianceWall Oven
What triggers F2
The ERC raises F2 if it senses a runaway heat condition or sees the temperature move beyond its runaway limits. Beeping continues until cancel is pressed or another function is selected.
Owner response
Cancel the alarm. Should it come back, switch the oven off, stop cooking with it and phone for service.
The manual’s checklist for a repeat alarm
Look for a stuck relay.
Inspect the oven sensor and its wiring.
After the alarm clears, confirm that the oven runs through a clean cycle with no failure of any kind.
If F2 keeps returning, call (415) 687-5926 to talk through Dacor wall oven repair in San Francisco. Have the model number ready, plus whether the alarm repeated after cancel.
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 high temperature alarm in heating mode, raised by runaway heat or a temperature past the runaway limits.
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.
