Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Dacor's own guidance for C-23 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Unplug the probe, turn the knobs to OFF and restart; if C-23 persists, cut power for at least 30 seconds.

02

If the code returns with the probe out, book a visit; if it only appears with the probe in, the probe itself may need replacing.

Still there?

It usually turns into temperature sensor and thermostat repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

C-23 is not the oven's own temperature sensor; that is C-20.

Questions
about C-23.

Can I clear C-23 myself?
Unplug the probe, turn the knobs to OFF and restart; if C-23 persists, cut power for at least 30 seconds. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Can I keep cooking on my Dacor after C-23 if I skip the probe?
If C-23 clears with the probe unplugged and does not return, the oven can often be used without it. If it shows even with no probe inserted, the socket or wiring needs checking.
Does C-23 on a Dacor mean the oven sensor failed too?
No. Dacor separates the two: C-23 is the plug-in probe, and the cavity sensor has its own code, C-20.

Still showing C-23?

Book with the code exactly as it appears, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or scorching — with a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
