If you read 0.5V with light on, then there must be something wrong, this bulbs are 12VAC.
By the way, the original part Dacor OEM 86364 is still available on the Internet, and it is cheaper than 86573. Here the part:
Ebay seller, 10 bulbs for $7.
Q10T3/CL-12V $0.41 10W 12V Replacement Lamp Light Bulb IN-STOCK
If you are not sure if a bulb has blown or not, and if the filamet does not look broken you can test the bulb using your multimeter, if the bulb reads infinity (open), then the bulb has blown.
Let me know if this solves your problem, in that case please do not forget to accept the solution.
Hi.
The 0.5V reading is quite an uncommon fault, double check, and before calling repair you can try the $7 bulbs. If there is low voltage to bulb, then it is probably the electronic control. To do a clean job, volts at board and wiring should be tested. That is a job for a technician.
If you want to arrange repair contact an authorized service, if there is one at 40 miles, they will send you a technician with parts.Click here to locate service.
Sorry, here the link to Dacor service.
Please read my previous comment.

This voltage is not normal ..this is probably the voltage of the negative or the ground...it has to be normal 110 v cause this oven works without any transformers ...so the issue to check is the power suply line from the point of entry to the bulb ..and see where is interrupted...
I wasnt aware that it has a transformer..this is why I supposed that if it is powered by the wall plug ..than it should have the voltage ...its the same thing ..in no case it has like it looks so it is a break in power on the line ...

Previous expert said I should measure 110V - which is not correct - it is a 12V bulb.
I measure about 0.5VAC at each of the two sockets. The replacement bulbs were checked for continuity prior to installation. Note I purchased the Dacor part number and these bulbs (G4 base - 4mm pin spacing) are rated for hi-temp oven duty. I'm not sure if the ones for Malibu outdoor low voltage lighting can handle the temps.
When I push the panel switch labeled "light", I can hear the relay switch click and the light socket voltage switches from 0.0 to about 0.5VAC.
Do I conclude that there is something wrong on the control panel motherboard where the light's low voltage originates?
Does the appliance repair person exchange the board at $XXX dollars and $YYY labor? Is that my only alternative? Or do it myself since the Dacor factory is about 40 miles from here. Is it a difficult job?
Thanks
Just confirmed what I had suspected - that it is a control board issue.
