I have searched all over the internet to try to find one which is of the same ratings, with 3 wires to allow for a straight swap, however 3 wire capacitors do not seem that common, especially at the above values. I am instead now looking to swap it for a 4 wire capacitor or 2 wire capacitor and was hoping for some advice on how to go about doing this. The capacitor has one wire from the dehumidifier's main board which connects into it. 2 wires, a red and white then lead away from the capacitor to connect to the compressor. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance J.

Without fail I have explored more than one repair facility at every failure and I was told, with out fail, that it is much less expensive to replace than repair.

It would seem to me that dumping 8 dehumidifiers in the landfill has a worse impact on the environment than recharging the coolant gas. Perhaps there is some compromise legislation which would ban dumping large quantities of dehumidifiers into the landfills and requiring the manufacturers of dehumidifiers to make it easy to replace the coolant gas.

After all, I have already dumped my load into the atmosphere when the dehumidifier has failed. I can't believe that dumping the rest into the landfill somehow balances out. Perhaps the air quality brand of the EPA needs to interact with the water quality branch of the EPA. If they would like I could give them an address and phone number for each.

I have the Keystone Dehumidifier Model KSTAD70B, it is very similar to the ‘A’ version. It has recently started icing-up and it appears it will run the compressor even when the fan is shut off. In fact, recently while it was seeming to run normally (cycles always start OK) I tested it by pressing the power button on the top panel, the lights went off as did the fan but the compressor just kept going. Per the ‘block’ schematic on the machine it would seem it is the power relay sticking that would cause this problem. Has anyone else had this issue? Eventually the compressor does shut off but only after it gets really hot . Is the relay the likely fix? I`ve already ordered a couple on ebay for $3 to try.

Thanks!

Tom

ORIGINAL POST:

When we switched on our plumbed-in Hisense dehumidifier this season, it worked initially, but had stopped working (control panel had gone dark) when we checked on it the next day.

We found a manual online but it does not address how to diagnose issues.

Seeking help with how to troubleshoot/repair.

Thank you

My dehumidifier has not been collecting water in the drawer. I have just taken the filter off to have a look and noticed water in the back. Is there anything I can do about this? I can’t find any blockages to the water to drawer.

It is the Challenge 10l dehumidifier MDDN-10DEN7-QA3

The operating manual does not mention this error.

I have checked that the bucket is properly seated and the fill-switch works - when the bucket is removed, only the red full status LED blinks, and the compressor will not start at all if I power up the device in that state. Removing or replacing the bucket while the device is on switches between the two aforementioned error states.

I have had this dehumidifier for just over 4 years now, running it for a few months each year, and it has been used in fairly cold conditions this winter, but never outside its rated operating range. I am currently testing it in a room at 18 degrees Celsius, where it has had over a day to warm up, so this makes no sense to me.

The normal behaviour was that in a cold room it would occasionally run a defrost cycle, with the amber LED lit up constantly while it warmed the coils, then continued working with that light off.
