Sounds like your float is stuck in the full position, or the sensor that shows full is stuck on full.
If tank is empty but shows full, problem lies where full signal is coming from.

SOURCE: DeLonghi 50 Pint dehumidifier DE 500P won't turn back on

If it is not responding when you try to activate the shutoff button and are still not recieving an acknowledgement that the bucket is full you may hav a defective shutoff button. Try contacting the Manufacturer and see if you can purchase just the button. This i a common part and the price is usually reasonable. If you feel very technical inclined you can remove the button and touch the 2 wires together simulating a closed contact. The dehumidifier should now acknowledge the bucket is full. If you recieve the notification then the button is bad. If you found this solution helpful please rate it.

Thanks - Tech101

SOURCE: 'bucket full' light on, but bucket empty

There is likely a switch operated by a float to turn that light on and turn off the compressor, sometimes manufactures use a rubber "O" ring on the float shaft and they can slip. take the cover off the pump and check the float or in some cases one of two floats are used. Once float turns the pump on and off and the second float shuts OFF the compressor and turns ON the full reservior light.

SOURCE: the P1 light is on

P1 means the evaporator coils are freezing up.The P1 error is related to low airflow.This can be due to clogged or dirty filter.Take the filter out and clean it, if its dirty the dehumidifier can frost up due to the lack of air flow and will not work correctly.In some cases if the filter is too old then it has to be replaced.This should help.Thanks.Helpmech.

Midea Cube 20-Pint Smart WiFi Dehumidifier is stuck on 'Water Level 50%' even though tank has been emptied multiple times. How do I reset this?

If your Midea Cube 20-Pint Smart WiFi Dehumidifier is stuck on "Water Level 50%" even though the tank has been emptied multiple times, you can try the following steps to reset it:
  1. Unplug the dehumidifier from the power source and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  2. While the dehumidifier is unplugged, remove the water tank and check for any obstructions in the water tank outlet or on the float switch.
  3. Clean the water tank with warm water and mild detergent, then dry it thoroughly before replacing it in the dehumidifier.
  4. Plug the dehumidifier back in and turn it on. If the water level indicator still shows 50%, try pressing and holding the "Water Level" button for 3-5 seconds to reset the sensor.
  5. If the issue persists, try performing a factory reset on the dehumidifier. To do this, press and hold the "Timer" and "Mode" buttons simultaneously for 3-5 seconds until the display panel shows "F". Then, press the "Power" button to turn the dehumidifier off, unplug it from the power source, and wait for 5-10 minutes before plugging it back in and turning it on.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact Midea customer support for further assistance or to have the unit serviced by a professional.

Full light stays on always

Don't know your model specifically, but most dehumidifiers have a float that shuts the system down when the tank is full. Maybe the float is not going up and down like it should. With the power off and the tank out, see if the float is descending like it should when the tank is out. Popping it up and down a few times might solve the problem.

I have a FDL70S1 Dehumidifier. Unit runs for just a couple minutes and shuts off-blinking bucket full even though no water in bucket. Unit won't stay on

Dont spend to much time trying to repair dehumidifier they are very cheap to replace. Most dehumidifiers have lots of problems because they are made so cheap. Just replace the dehumidifier you will tank me in the end.

Full light stays on even though the unit is empty.cant turn unit off/on with button while full light is on.

Hi,
There may be a little rod of lever which is pressed by the float in the bucket when it is full - I suspect that it may be jammed in the "up" or "full" position.

If you can see it and pull it down to its normal position the machine should start again.
Hope this helps, but if not let me know what you find. Cheers, D.
