C2 on a Dacor Modernist induction cooktop means the IGBT sensor is open. The IGBTs are the power switches that drive the induction coils, and their sensor keeps them from overheating. Dacor cooktop display What to do when C2 shows on the cooktop ### Kind of code Induction power and coils An induction zone could not drive its coil as the board planned: no pan was detected, the current ran too high or too low, or the power stage reported trouble. The pan base, the supply voltage and a clogged air intake are checked before the coil or the power board is replaced, and a top that trips its breaker is left switched off until then. ### Usually leads to Induction 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 as Cooktop 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. ### Make Dacor A luxury make, part of Samsung, whose built-in cooktops show up in higher-end US kitchens. ### Source Dacor Modernist induction cooktop user manual, Information codes Dacor Modernist induction cooktops DTI30M977BB and DTI36M977BB (manual dated 2017). Dacor gas cooktops and rangetops do not use this list. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C2 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Turn the cooktop off and restart it. 02 If C2 stays, cut power for 30 seconds or longer and reconnect. 03 Book a visit if C2 does not clear. ### Still there? It usually turns into [induction board and coil repair](https://cooktoprepair.center/services/induction-board-and-coil-repair/). Book with the code and the model number. ### What not to do C2 is not about the pan or the glass temperature. It is on the power board. ## What you may notice with it. The cooktop problems C2 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the cooktop before anyone is booked.

Turn the cooktop off and restart it. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What is an IGBT on a Dacor induction cooktop? It is a power switch on the induction board that feeds the coils. C2 means the sensor guarding it has an open reading. ### Does C2 mean my Dacor induction board is bad? The sensor sits on or near the power board, so the board is the usual repair, but a connection is checked first. ### Why does C2 on a Dacor Modernist induction cooktop stop the zones? The IGBT sensor guards the power switches that feed the coils, and with it reading open the cooktop cannot keep those switches from overheating. The zones wait until the reading is sound again. --- **[Read on the site: Dacor induction cooktop showing C2 | CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/error-codes/dacor-c2/)** **[Book a visit with CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/schedule/)**
