What C1
actually means.
C1 on a Dacor Modernist induction cooktop means the top sensor is reading shorted. It is the partner of C0: the same sensor, failing the other way.

What to do when C1 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTemperature and overheat sensors
A sensor under the glass or on a board reported a reading the control rejected, or heat climbing past the safe limit — often after an empty pan was left on a zone. The zone is allowed to cool and a loose sensor plug is ruled out before the sensor, the coil assembly or the board is blamed. A top that keeps getting hotter is switched off at the breaker first.
Usually leads toInduction board and coil repair
Induction zones that stop sensing pans, cut out, buzz or show codes, traced to the power boards, the coils, their sensors and the links to the controls.
Shows up asCooktop Element Not Heating
A coil stays black, a radiant ring under the glass never glows, or a zone warms so weakly that a pot of water will not boil.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C1 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Switch the cooktop off, then restart it.
If C1 remains, disconnect power for 30 seconds or more and reconnect.
Book a visit if C1 is still there.

What not to do
C1 does not report an overheated cooktop. A shorted sensor reading is a circuit problem.
