What E2 Means
On the earlier Dacor induction cooktops, the Discovery DYTT and Heritage HICT touch-control models, E2 means spills or objects are on or near the controls. It is the same message those cooktops share with the Heritage induction range.
Common Causes of E2
- Spill on the touch controls
- Utensil or pan on the controls
- Touch control failing
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Clean up the spill, move items off the control strip, then turn the cooktop’s power off for 10 seconds and restore it. If E2 returns on a clean surface, call for service.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- A touch control that reports E2 on clean glass needs to be tested under the glass.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
