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 ... Read more 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.

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.

As I removed the broken part, I marked each wire indicating the color of the wire nut I would use for the installation of the replacement switch.

First....you need a metric nut driver...not a standard...this took me five trips to four stores to find. So if you have this model number don't think it is merely a screwdriver and a Phillips. After that the job was simple but the humidistat did not fix my dehumidifier. It was worth the $38 try ...but sadly off to buy a new one...

The switch housing was not exactly the same for easy snap in. I removed the actual switch and installed it into the old housing. Then I found that the male pins were larger than the old ones. I chose to clip off the female connectores, strip the wires, and solder the wires to the pins on the switch. It was easier for me than attempting to ... Read more change the push on connectors.
