Can you post the whole dcdaig /v?
What servers are running AD services?
Possible that you have old failed DC that needs to be cleaned too

I saved and cleared the
"Event Viewer (local)" - "Applications and Services Logs" - "Directory Service"
log. Reran dcdiag. Still same error.
"Event Viewer (local)" - "Applications and Services Logs" - "Directory Service"
log. Reran dcdiag. Still same error.
It did not work with elevated permission either.
The problem was quite easy to fix and also a bit embarrasing.
I kept running the excact same command:
dcdiag /f:dcdiag.txt
Apparently dcdiag is unable to overwrite the txt file on subsequent runs (even with elevated permissions)
So a simple delete of the txt in between runs (or to anther filename) and the error is gone.
