Title: Dehumidifier not Wurkn'
Post by: tp4tissue on Wed, 02 May 2018, 10:21:01: Update: Fixed..

Problem was the Potentiometer..

It should be @ 50k ohm peak, Only reads 1k peak..

That's why the compressor wasn't turning on..

I only figured this out after getting tired of hammering the compressor for 30 minutes.

Prior, I chked every capacitor and relay, what a waste of time.. 3 hours later..

Circuit board is fine. Capacitors are fine..

Fan will turn on, but the Compressor won't start.

Soooooo.. Going to Hit it with a Hammer..

Now, the only question is..

Is it better to Hit it from the side ? or top down, or Diagonally??

Come on now guys hitting it with a cucumber just isn't going to be the same as using a hammer.

Human teeth are not designed for hammers, cucumbers are full of green which is all the body needs to cure cancer.
