Dacor RSD30 dual fuel range - Thermal reset or oven high temperature limit switch manual reset. WWW.Smythies.com

The problem: The Dacor RSD30 dual fuel range does not work after the self clean cycle.
None of the oven modes work after the self clean cycle. The stove top works fine, as does the keypad, however there is no heat in the oven.

The solution: (At least in my case.) The oven high temperature limit switch has tripped and needs a manual reset.

Procedure: Turn off the power to the range. Be sure to turn of both the high current power and the low current power.
Open the oven door. Remove the 6 screws holding the upper panel piece, as shown below:

Remove these 6 screws.

Now access the switch.

Detail - Reset the switch.

Use the opportunity to clean the area. Before replacing the panel, and being very careful of exposed high voltages, turn on power and check that oven operations now work. Turn off all power again, and replace the panel.
