Turn the oven off. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can I reset C-A2 on my Dacor myself? Dacor's table gives only one instruction for C-A2: service. A cooling motor that is not working normally is not something the owner can adjust. ### Why does the cooling motor behind C-A2 matter on my Dacor? It keeps heat away from the electronics around the cavity. Running the oven while that motor misbehaves can stress those parts, so book a visit. --- **[Read on the site: Dacor Modernist wall oven showing C-A2 | OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/error-codes/dacor-c-a2/)** **[Book a visit with OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/schedule/)**
