Error codeLC

Quick answer
LC on Dacor Modernist and Heritage dishwashers means a leak was detected; close the water valve and switch off the breaker.
Model compatibility: Dacor reuses codes across series and model years, so LC may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Leakage check: leak detected.
LC on a Dacor Modernist or Heritage dishwasher (DDW24M99* and DDW24T99*, 24-inch) stands for leakage check: the dishwasher has detected a leak. Treat it promptly, because water and electricity are involved.
What the manual tells you to do
Close the water supply valve.
Go to your home’s circuit breaker panel and set the dishwasher’s breaker to off.
When the leak has been dealt with or the code stays, call (310) 742-1907. Our dishwasher repair page covers Los Angeles; have the model number and the steps you already took on hand.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
