Frigidaire dehumidifier compressor not shutting off when turned off AND compressor not running
Переглядів 8 тис.2 роки тому
Frigidaire dehumidifier compressor would not turn off/stop running even when turned off, scary! I teach you two tricks to fixing it. ALSO- once I fixed that, compressor would only kick on when on "continuous" setting then wouldn't stop running when you raise the humidity. OR if you have humidity setting on anything but "continuous", compressor wouldn't kick on. Could care less if you like or su...

How to make a crabbing trotline snood / how to tie snood onto trotline rope line

Update! At 0:57 seconds...ignore when I say to keep the overhand knot away from the gas line a bit! Keep it as snug against it as you can! If you don't, the knot will go all the way around some smaller chicken necks and prevent you from tightening as much as possible because knot will hit gas line. It does help tremendously when neck breaks - stops bungee from going through gas line. Allow my s...

Update! Unless you are very good at soldering (unlike me) don't waste your time doing this, just go pull one from the junkyard. If you don't have a SportShift Accord, the part numbers don't matter...ignore what they tell you at Autozone, Advance etc. Not having to find the same part number saves a lot of headaches.

Can somebody help me please? I tried to remove the lower unit, it worked but it only comes down about 4 inches and that it, sound like the shaft requires something to be removed, not sure what to do, help please :)
You're missing the two nuts that releases the shift rod. Make sure you're in reverse and then they are both exposed. They are facing the back of your boat, middle of the shaft
If you can't shift to reverse, tighten a couple bolts back on the lower end because it pushes lower end off trying to shift
The two nuts are located directly across from my drain hole at 0:43, they are tough to get to...10mm wrench
Three years later, and a completely different brand of dehumidifier but I just found your video. I've only replaced relay's when they've blown up and are easy to spot but that's not always how the fail and your diagnosis completely makes sense. Glad I don't have to try to find a new main control board (discontinued), try to diagnose/replace the brains of it (my initial thought, and should probably involve an oscilloscope that I don't own), or spend $300 for a new dehumidifier! Thank you! Relays are cheap and easy to solder, just be sure to use flux!
NO
Fast and easy!! Thanks for sharing.
Edit! So a year later and I'm on the water and motor is barely peeing. I beach the boat and take off lower end (make sure to keep tools on your boat!) and inspect impeller - it was fine but TWO old impeller blades were stuck in water channel (under metal gasket) restricting water flow...make sure to take the screen intake off and find old broken impeller blades unlike I did!!
Thanks will try that
Hey, thanks for the video! Not sure if it was the ground or the relay,but working for now!
Thanks very informative
For anyone with this style Frigidaire dehumidifier that is having the compressor won't turn off while powered off issue and are sick of trying to hit the relay each time. The style compressor relay these use is SFK-112DM. Four solder points on the bottom of the board.
Appreciate the info. Unfortunately my soldering skills leave a bit to be desired
I have one with a dial that runs even when I turn the dial to off. Maybe bc my room is very humid? I just started using it, bought used and owner said works fine but it could be stuck on continuous mode somehow.
@WhatAG23 I would look for a similar looking relay, probably is the problem
Good video. Just what I needed. One thing I will do is flush out the tubes coming and going.
Thanks for this episode. I dropped the lower unit on my Honda 20hp, informed by your tutorial. It was easy, and when I found the impeller intact, I used my compressor to blow out the intake tube. All reassembled, and water circulating like it should. Problem solved!
Great! Next time I bet you'll start with blowing out intake tube THEN check the impeller 😉
@@towerh6680 Definitely! But the main benefit for me of viewing video tutorials like yours is that it demystifies the mechanical processes involved, and gives me the confidence to just dive in and do it. I recently installed a n OEM starter motor and related parts on an 8HP Yamaha outboard, and again, it was thanks to online content that I was able to tackle this much more complicated job. Cheers!
@davidcooper2516 Right! I enjoy that as well. I also make the videos so when I forget how to do it I just watch it again lol. I keep a spare impeller and the few tools needed on my boat at all times now so I can fix on the water if needed.
@@towerh6680 Great idea. I'll be doing that too, though this job would be much more challenging while afloat. But the consequences of running the engine without a functioning impeller are clearly disastrous. I always have a backup to get to port in the form of an electric trolling motor. Slow, but reliable.
The numbers tell if the TCU was manufactured in Japan or the USA. ALWAYS try to get the TCU manufactured in Japan. Those manufactured in the USA are JUNK. I have replaced these a number of times in Honda Accords for people and most times I simply go for 90, 91, 92 models as they are interchangable. I look for Japanese rather than worrying about the specifics of the car.
Thanks for the good pointers! Can't believe these cars are still running strong and on the road
Thanks for the video. How did it end up working out. Did the 3m tape hold up over time.
Worked great. Still holding strong to this day!
I tap the side where the relay is located and it shut right off.
Nice!
Saved me from having to buy a new one, thanks so much for posting this, I thought our machine was possessed when it ran even when switched off. I followed your advice, sorted👍
Scary isn't it! Glad it helped
You're the man. Having the same issue. Thanks so much check capacitors they're fine
Tengo uno ....una nave
Delete this video. Dont post shit like this untill you TRY IT FIRST
Thank you! This worked.
Great! Way to tackle the job!
Worked like a charm thank you! Did not even have to replace humidity sensor or relais(yet)..was somewhat surprised how well the unit was built..def worth repairing
Mine had no blades😂
Ayyyyy! Someone has me beat!
The glass body component should be a diode, might just be a common 1N4148 type but hard to say. These are common for protection or other low voltage circuit tricks. Not sure what it would be doing on a humidity sensor board. It looks like the leads corroded away which is strange, but maybe it's constantly exposed to condensation. The leads on components like that are usually a type of iron alloy which explains the red rust residue. I have a similar humidifier that I found with the compressor stuck on and it's likely the stuck relay as well. Thanks for the video showing what to expect and giving me hope that it's actually serviceable. A lot of things are built so proprietary and completely unserviceable now. The contacts are worn in the relay and starting to weld themselves together. Maybe you can get lucky and it works for a while, but it's likely to happen again. It's PCB mounted for the coil connections to trigger it, but that might be 2-4 leads and you just have to heat up those connections and gradually pull it out without damaging the PCB.
Did you shift into forward before removing the drive?
Nope left it in neutral. Should I have?
Thank you so much for sharing your find! You solved my problem (relay connection)!! My husband thinks I’m a genius 😉
Haha it will be our secret! Glad it worked for you as well
straight to it thank you
Thanks for answering the ability to swap the vent and sink inlet! I couldn't find an answer to that anywhere
Right!? Would be nice if that was stated, but fortunately you can.
Does the trim come with a rubber lining that touches the windshield?
Yes. Wish YT would let me send you a pic
@@towerh6680 thank you, i need the rubber piece for my Acura TL 2009
Thank you so much. I had to remind myself with this video how to do it
Welcome! I've revisited my videos because I forget too lol. It wasn't peeing great yesterday when I was crabbing so looked at the video to see how it should...blew air in the line and it cleared it.
Thank you so much. I had to remind myself with this video how to do it
Haha me too. That's why I make these videos. Wasn't peeing good yesterday so I watched the ending of the video to see lol. Blew compressed air in the line and it cleared it.
Did it go into a limp mode or anything when your impeller took a crap?
Motor kept sputtering that's what made me realize it wasn't peeing
Thks I'll try that to stop my compressor!
I found this really useful. Cheers!
Worked! Thanks for posting...
Brilliant , I forgot the extra bolt on the housing so it wouldn't drop
Glad it helped. I make these videos to remind myself how to do it when I forget about that bolt in the future 😁
Excellent and informative video. As someone else mentioned, there is no need to remove the three plug-ins on the left side that connects to the ECU, just the two plug-ins to the TCU, then remove the main mounting securing nuts and carefully withdraw the entire unit far enough to rotate it which provides access to the three mounting screws for the TCU. Once that is in hand you can easily repair or replace.
Those trims are $295/ea!
Now that is just absurd. Car-part dot com has come through for me many times with salvage parts around the country
How about the 98 infinity qx4 is it same screw idle control or different ?
Sweet! Ours just started not turning off the compressor and I think it's a slightly older variant on this series. Thanks for posting this video!
How is it holding up so far?
Great. Zero issues since I made this video. Hardest part was Lowes sending me one where the toilet wasn't in pieces
Thanks for the video. I have a the same dehumidifier lasted about 5 years. It's not working properly so I check the capacity and it's OK but didn't know about the relay or the sensor.
Thanks for the very practical advice.
Nice, quick video, thanks!
Crab on brother!
Where’d you get the kit from mate
Ebay. I bought 2- one to keep on the boat so I can fix on the water if needed
WHAT ARE THE VALUES OF THE TWO BURNED RESISTORS?
Just got a 93. D4 on. Shift LS from 1st to 3rd and that it. Thanks!
Right on brother!
Thank you very much for taking the time to make and post this!
My LG is doing the same thing - compressor runs until you unplug it, regardless of power panel display or humidity level. Relays don't fare well in wet conditions. They also are mechanical devices and the contacts tend to burn or corrode either making continuous contact or none at all. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks a bunch. Had tried the grounding screws as you had shown. It was the relays. My wife thinks I'm a genius.
Yeah just tell her the relay fluid needed purged and you got it back up and running. You just set yourself up for an extra serving of lasagna tonight buddy
Thank you, this solved the problem I was having with my Edgestar Dehumidifier. Relay connection must have shook loose.
It's a great dehumidifier, glad the fix worked for you as well. Thanks for letting me know
Thanks for posting. Saved us from having to buy a new one!
That is awesome! Only reason I make these horribly edited videos is to help others so thanks for letting me know!
