The Origional Humidistat Quit Working
The knob one turns to set the humidity level was removed. The two screws holding the top on were removed. The top was lifted and swung to the side. After noting which of the two wires went where on the humidistat the wires were removed. Small flat screwdrivers were used to pry back the plastic retainers on one side of the original failed humidistat. The new one was put in place, the two wires were reattached. The knob was replaced. The top was positioned and its two retaining screws replaced. A magnetic phillips screwdriver was handy but not necessary. Piece of cake! Someone with ten thumbs could do it!! Thanks for the prompt courteous attention to the returned erroneous part! Dealing with partselect. Com was a pleasure. . . . . . Thanks!! P. S. The dehumidifier works like new now!!

the humidity control broke
Taking the case apart and replacing the control unit was a piece of cake. And the part arrived the very day after I ordered it.

Didn't go as well as the last guy....
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...

Push on connectors and switch housing were different
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 change the push on connectors. For me, the actual switch was what I wanted and I fixed it my way. It was easy to do however some folks may want to change the push on connectors. Works great and saved me hundreds of dollars. Thanks.
