Possible Causes

Drifted or contaminated humidity sensor, Sensor located too close to discharge air, Faulty main PCB ADC circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • Compare readings: Use a separate hygrometer to compare actual room humidity with the unit's display.
  • Relocate unit: Ensure the dehumidifier is not placed where its own discharge air blows directly onto the sensor area.
  • Clean or replace sensor: If readings are consistently off by a large margin, replace the humidity sensor assembly.
  • PCB replacement: If a new sensor does not correct the reading, the main PCB may be faulty.
