I have an F6 error on my Dacor ERD36. I was told that I need to replace the clock/control board. I tried to dissamble the range but have not succeeded. Please help me get to the control board so I can replace it. Thanks.

- I've had a couple of replies. However, none addressed my question. How do I disassemble the top of the range to get to the control board? How do I replace the control board? I know what part to get already, I just need to find the instruction for replacing it. Thanks again.

- I need help from those who have worked on the Dacor ERD36 Duel-Fuel range to tell me the steps needed to get to the clock/control panelso I can replace it. Thanks.
I contacted Dacor and they stated that the F6 error means the ERC or Electronic Relay Control is bad. This part would need to be relaced. They gave me a parts company to contact for the part. It is Appliance Parts Depot at 1-800-642-6420.

- I have got to the Appliance Parts Depot site and they have a diagram for you to look at which will make it very easy to pull it all appart as you can see where the screws are etc.
We have a ERD36 and it is on its third control board. What happens is that even though the burners are sealed, water can seep around the edges of the cooktop, via spillage or even just cleaning. In particular, the area between the cooktop and the bullnose is vulnerable, as the control board is underneath it. There is a shield above the control board, but there is no gasket to prevent water from seeping by it as well. Water then drips onto the control board and causes a failure.
To access the control board, you need a special key to unscrew the brass rings which hold the burners to the gas pipes. Pull up the burners and unplug the igniters. Then lift off the rangetop. Unscrew the shield that runs across the front of the range, and the control board will be exposed.
Be very careful when unplugging the ribbon connector which runs around the back of the board to the control panel. It is very thin and prone to breakage.
Assembly is the reverse of disassembly. While at it, you might want to examine the undersides of the burners to make sure the silicon seal rings are still in good shape. And finally, be very careful not to strip the threads on the aluminum gas pipes when screwing the brass rings back on.
we have some of these control panels available way below retail price! It is the whole front panel and includes the control board, clock knob bezels, etc. email me if you need info! donsappliances@gmail.com

I have a similar problem with thr F1 warning alarm that goes off at all hours of the day and night. The oven and range top work, but the alarm is driving us nuts. This happened last year and the technician could not fix the problem unless the alarm was actively beeping. Apparently the F1 code means it could be one of two things. Last year I had the circuit board replaced for around $400 and a year later the same problem! I now keep the circuit breaker off until I need to use the oven/stove and then turn the circuit breaker back on. The alarm is most annoying and when I contacted the manufacturer I was told there is no way to shut off this error alarm. Eventually, the alarm will keep going continually and I will contact the technician to replace the part. However, I do have to say that I hear a clicking sound - like the stove is trying to light - when the circuit breaker switch is turning back on.

We have had a problem with the control panel since we bought this unit. Dacor rep says to turn stove "OFF" and reset the computer. This has always worked until now. Turning back on (via circuit breaker) does not fix the "F1" probblem now. We bought this unit in 01.
