for some reason, my dacor double wall ovens wont illuminate ( inside the oven ) when the lite buttons on the panel are pushed ( there are two buttons, one for upper oven and one for lower ). Any ideas would be appreciated.

The first thing I would check are the light bulbs.

Gene, I will check the bulbs. But, since they both failed at the same time, it seems unlikely. Is there anything that could cause both lite switches to fail at the same time ( something in the control panel )?

Lets do one thing at a time. Check the light bulbs first.

Is there push in switch on the door frame or just the pad on the control panel? What is the complete model number of the oven?

Gene.

Gene, no buttons on the door. The model number is MCS 227S.

Gene, also, I did check one of the bulbs ( there are four total, two in each oven ). The bulb was fine. There are two buttons on the control panel. One for the upper oven and one for the lower. Neither button causes anything to happen.

Do you hear the faint click of a relay when you press a button, or no sound at all?

No, absolutely no sound at all on either button.

I suspect a bad relay or control board.

Open the control panel and check the low voltage lights transformer. The lights in this oven are a halogen 10W 12V, so there suppose to be 12V at the secondary windings. Here are the wiring diagrams for this oven.

- The part number for the transformer is AP3391742
