About Daniel Hernandez.

Daniel Hernandez has spent eighteen years repairing appliances, the last decade of it almost entirely on high-end built-in kitchens, where a service call begins by working out which control board is actually in front of you.

He is the reason this site asks which generation of Dacor you own before it answers anything else. A Dacor built before the 2016 Samsung acquisition runs Dacor’s own boards and reports F-codes; a Modernist unit built after it runs a Samsung platform and reports C-codes. The two tables do not share a single code string, which is how an otherwise good technician still turns up with the wrong part.

Daniel writes our oven, range, cooktop and dishwasher diagnostics, and checks every fault-code page against the manual it cites — including the pages where the honest answer is that no such manual exists.
