Display on our dcs oven is beginning to fade. can i fix it?

The display is beginning to fade on our dcs oven. can it be fixed by owner or does it need to be serviced?

trbltd Feb 26, 2009

When we returned from a 6 week vacation the display on our DCS WOS130SS oven was so dim that the temperature can't be read and the clock is barely visible. It was fine when we left for vacation. I will try ordering the part suggested in the solution posted here. Our unit is about 3 years old. I see 4 other postings with the same problem. Since the Australians took over this company the phone service has long delays and the service people don't seem very knowledgable.

Excellent. Ordered this part after some due diligence and seeing your post here. I was being told by a parts rep at DCS I had to order the whole control panel for $292 shipping

Hi there,

the reason your display is fading is because the pixels on the lcd screen are separating or the wiring harness from the keypad to the display board is dirty. unfortunately, lcd screens are not repairable themselves. i would recommend you have a technician come and take a look and replace it.

thanks

My DCS WOS-230SS top wall oven begins to heat up normally but then stops heating, the fan comes on, then begins heating up again. Got to 170 then went no higher. Could it be the element?

This is a tough question because we haven't mention the make and model number you should add that so we can help you better but normally if the top oven is not working properly it may have thermostat problem or it could also be control panel problem can you tell more information especially the make and model

Sometimes you can take it out and it's not working properly and take that oven and put it in self-clean mode and it might fix problems

My DCS double ovens do not have any display left ( all th egreen display has faded in past three weeks) on the display panel. can you give me an idea of what i should do next Thanks Jim

The replacement part is (or was) Fisher & Paykel #16252 Electronic Oven Control (app. $240 in '06 when I replaced the last one). For what it's worth, I have had two boards fail in the past 10 years. On both of my boards, capacitor C3 (68 uf, 35v) is the part that failed. I replaced the bad cap on both boards (cost $0.16) and the displays were back to normal. Obviously, the failed caps were the manifestation, not the cause of the problem with my boards.

Dcs oven display dim - need part #

I just did this same repair...same part number as above (Part #211696 "Electronic Oven Control, Double).
to install you have to remove two screws on the top of the display section of the oven, as well as several screws on the bottom of it, and the screws holding the close pin/temperature probe socket.
Then you can pull off the whole top section (slowly) and remove the two connectors to the existing control unit.
Then release the ribbon cable connected to the control unit on the inside of the top section (press the two small pins inward and slide up the small front section of the black socket to release the ribbon connector.
Unscrew the old control panel, screw in the new one, connect the ribbon, and then reverse removal steps. Easy!

DCS elect wall oven LCD display

Had the same display issue with my DCS WOS-230. The display was fading and made it very hard to read clock and temp setting. Called DCS/Fisher Paykal and was told I need the Control system kit for $335.00 to fix the issue. After reading the input on this issue on this site I pushed them to sell me just the DCS EOC 211696 double display module 100-01095-00. Install took 10 minutes and everything works great. Thanks all for laying the groundwork as DCS will really push hard to sell you the more expensive kit that you do not need.

Dim LCD's on DCS Double Wall Oven

Had the same problem last week - called DCS (which automatically transferred me to Fischer-Paykel) and was able to order the part from them. They knew exactly what it was, and shipped to me in CA from CA, it was less than $90. Just installed it, and the new one works swell. One suggestion - I drew with a Sharpie on one side of each of the three parts that plug into the board to help align the new one, and to install the wide ribbon cable (not really a cable, but you'll know what I mean), pull up on the two side pieces and the ribbon pulls right out. Keep it up and slide the new one in and then push the black piece down. That was the only part that took me a minute to figure out.
