# Dacor integrated griddle service

### A separate appliance that happens to live in the range

The integrated griddle has its own element and its own control, so it can be wrong while every burner beside it is right — which narrows a visit considerably. The two failure patterns are quite different and worth telling apart before anybody arrives: a griddle that never reaches temperature points at the element or its control, while one that gets there and then drifts points at sensing or a thermal cut-out doing its job. Surface condition matters too, and a mistreated plate cooks unevenly.

What this involves

Its own element and control — it fails independently of the burners

Never heats and drifts after heating are two different repairs

A mistreated plate surface cooks unevenly and imitates a problem

Establish which pattern it is

From cold, and after thirty minutes. The answer decides whether we are looking at power or at sensing.

Measure across the plate

Several points, not one. Uneven heat across a griddle is usually the plate or its seating rather than the element.

Test the cut-out and the control

A griddle that shuts itself down is often protecting itself, and that protection has a cause worth finding.

### It heats unevenly across the plate.

That is usually the plate or its seating rather than the element. Several measurements across the surface settle it in minutes.

### Can I leave the griddle in permanently?

Plenty of kitchens do, and it changes what collects underneath. If the burners nearest the griddle are the ones misbehaving, that is usually why.
