The forums indicate that one solution for this problem is replacement of the sensor assembly, which is what I did. Upon switching the sensor assembly it DID work for one bucket full, but then went back to indicating bucket full when it isn't. Other fixes indicate changing the switch assembly, which I tried to do but the part has been disc

ontinued. The only other item is replacement of the main computer, which the cost added to the cost of the sensor assembly would equal the cost of replacement of the appliance, so I won't go there.

e whole housing had to be removed, could not just remove a section. Once replaced, plugged in to test, seemed to work. so replaced all the housing and screws. Unit is working again. Definitely worth the gamble, bc a tech would have been 3-4 times more expensive. My tenant was also confidant about being able to replace the sensor. After we did it, I think I could have done it too.

Had to pop open the back. The back did not just unscrew and come off. It has to be pried off carefully. Took the turbo off and put the new one on.

I really like this dehumidifier it has a feature I cant find on any new ones. 2 hours on two hours off. This works very well for me. Humidistats on all I have tried do not work well, they turn on and off every couple minutes very aggravating. So for the 3rd time I needed to replace fan motor old motor bearing ceased up. I researched onlin

e for new dehumidifier and came across LG fan and motor at Parts Select for less than $20 bucks it is up and running. Took almost a month for the motor to arrive but it is worth it. also motor needed a capacitor that my old motor didn't need. Luckily I had a spare capacitor from a pool filter motor I repaired years ago. Thanks Parts Select your going to be my first choice on my next appliance repair.
