Dacor Refrigerator User Control and Display Board
To determine if the user control and display board is defective, try pressing the buttons on the control panel. If some of the buttons work, but others do not work, the user control and display board might need to be replaced. Additionally, if the display is not working, check the power to the user control and display board. If the user control and display board has power, but it isn’t working, replace it.
Dacor Refrigerator Dispenser Control Board
The dispenser control board governs most of the functions of the dispenser system. If only one dispenser part is not working, it is probable that an individual part has failed. In this case, test each of the dispenser components before testing the control board. If the entire dispenser system is not working, the control board is more likely to be at fault.

To determine if the display board is defective, try pressing the buttons on the control panel. If some of the buttons work, but others do not work, the display board might need to be replaced. Additionally, if the display board is not working, check for power to the display board. If the display board has power, but it isn’t working, replace it.
Disconnected or Damaged Wire Harness
The wires from the control panel to the control board may be loose or have become disconnected. Make sure the wire harness connectors are tight. A damaged wire harness will need to be replaced.
Dacor Refrigerator Dispenser Front Panel
On some refrigerator models the user controls are part of the ice and water dispensers front panel. If none of the control panel buttons are working, it’s probable the main control board is malfunctioning. However, if some of the buttons on the control panel are still functioning, it’s more likely the unit’s user control and display is faulty. If this component is sold as part of the dispenser front panel, the entire assembly can be replaced.
Dacor Refrigerator Main Control Board
The main control board might be defective. However, the control board is rarely at fault for this problem. Before replacing the control board, first check all of the dispenser components. If none of the dispenser components are defective, consider replacing the main control board.

Control Panel Is Locked Out
Most refrigerator control panels located on the door have a “Child Lock” feature which prevents unwanted use of the controls. When activated, the control panel buttons will not work. On most models, pressing the “Child Lock” button for 3 to 4 seconds will lock and unlock this function. See the owner’s manual for more detailed instructions.
