Dehumidifier Humidistat Control
★★★★★

(1)
Part #WP1168670
The humidistat control, used in dehumidifiers, switches the dehumidifier on and off automatically to maintain humidity. If the switch does not work, the humidifier will not maintain the temperature properly. For this repair, screwdrivers are the only tools needed. First remove the knob and the screws from the top. Pry back the plastic retainers on one side of the old humidistat and remove wires before installing the new part and reattaching the two wires that connect to it. Remember to unplug the humidifier from the power source before installation.

Zip Tie – Part Number: WPW10339879

Zip Tie
Part #WPW10339879
A zip tie, also known as a cable tie or a wire tie, is a fastening device that holds wires or tubing together. If a machine has wires or tubing that are easily shifted, you need to hold them tightly together using a zip tie. It is a flexible, plastic strip that has serrated teeth and a locking mechanism. If the zip tie is damaged, it should be replaced. Freely moving wires may rub against surfaces, causing them to break over time. Zip ties are single-use and may not be reused after they are removed from a machine. To release the locking mechanism, you will need to insert a small flat tool into the head of the zip tie, between the tongue and the serration, and depress the bar. You can then pull the teeth out of the mechanism to loosen the cable tie. This part is produced by the original equipment manufacturer and is sold individually.

Paulina - For model number AD50DSR1
July 29, 2025
My dehumidifier is putting out a lot of heat. It is working well to remind moisture, but putting a lot of heat out. I've tried cleaning it, doesn't seem to help. Any idea why it would be producing so much heat?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Paulina, thank you for getting in touch. You will need to clean the condenser coils and filter. Clogged coils or filters restrict airflow and can cause the dehumidifier to overheat, leading to increased heat output. Blocked vents or inadequate space around the unit can restrict airflow, causing overheating. A faulty compressor, part number PS993071, could produce a lot of heat. It has to over work to properly function, producing more heat than normal. We hope this helps.

The Origional Humidistat Quit Working
10 of 17 people found this instruction helpful.
  • James from Silver Bay, MN
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
The knob one turns to set the humidity level was removed. The two screws holding the top on were removed. The top was lifted and swung to the side. After noting which of the two wires went where on the humidistat the wires were removed. Small flat screwdrivers were used to pry back the plastic retainers on one side of the original fai led humidistat. The new one was put in place, the two wires were reattached. The knob was replaced. The top was positioned and its two retaining screws replaced. A magnetic phillips screwdriver was handy but not necessary. Piece of cake! Someone with ten thumbs could do it!! Thanks for the prompt courteous attention to the returned erroneous part! Dealing with partselect. Com was a pleasure. . . . . . Thanks!! P. S. The dehumidifier works like new now!!
