There are two dashes in both the humidity set point and humidity level windows. Is this a defective control board?

SOURCE: touch control for humidity setting

Yes, the touch pad may defective. But, before you try to replace it, let's try something else first.

Turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to OFF and unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Wait 15 minutes and plug the unit back in. Turn the Master ON/OFF Switch to ON and set the humidity extraction level where you want it. Hopefully, that 15 minute time out allowed the unit to reset itself and revert back to the original factory settings.

If it didn't you can order replacement parts directly from Haier 877-337-3639 or locate a service center near you.

Hope this helped to solve the problem. Please let me know. Thanks.

Testimonial: "the fix was right on, cannot get the setting below the 50% humidity, but the unit works, will probably get new control if cost is worth it, thank you "

I have a GQF 1502 incubator with digital control and the humidity number stays at 97 but when I put a hygrometer inside the unit it read 47, so what could be wrong.

There could be several reasons why the humidity reading on the digital control is not accurate. Here are a few things you can try:
  1. Calibrate the hygrometer: The first thing to do is to make sure that the hygrometer you are using to measure the humidity is calibrated correctly. You can check this by placing the hygrometer in a sealed container along with a wet sponge or cloth for a few hours. The hygrometer should read close to 100% humidity. If it doesn't, then it may need to be calibrated.
  2. Check the humidity sensor: The humidity sensor in the incubator may be faulty or dirty. You can clean the sensor with a soft cloth or replace it if it is damaged.
  3. Check the water level: Make sure that the water level in the incubator is sufficient. If the water level is low, the humidity will be low as well.
  4. Check the ventilation: The ventilation in the incubator should be set to allow for proper air exchange. If the ventilation is not set correctly, it can affect the humidity level.
  5. Check the room conditions: The room conditions, including temperature and humidity, can affect the humidity level in the incubator. If the room is too dry, it can affect the humidity level in the incubator. You may need to adjust the dehumidifier or add a humidifier to the room to maintain the proper humidity level.

Fan always runs, speed doesnt change (low/high), setting humidity level doesnt impact...is this a control board or circuit board issue?

Verify the humidity reading with another device. Perhaps the humidity sensor is dirty or bad.

Another possibility is the switching device that runs the compressor and fan is shorted. If it's a mechanical relay, the contacts may have welded together, or if it's a solid-state relay, it's got a punch-through or meltdown in a device junction. My guess is it's a mechanical relay since you mention it used to click on and off and now you don't hear that. The relay may be on the control board, or it may be mounted separately - I don't have a photo or diagram of the inside of your model available.

Cannot set humidity level to anything other than 50.

Is it reading the room humidity, rather than showing the set point? Check the manual.

What is the proper setting for Danby R410A?

R410A is refrigerant gas. I think you wanted to know, what humidity extraction level the controls should be set on. If it is really hot and humid in your area, set the humidity extraction level between 35 & 40%. If you have a mechanical control, turn the knob to Maximum.

Hope this helped you, Bradleyjo. Thanks for choosing FixYa.

What is the proper setting for the Temp &Humidity?

Set the temp level at whatever point your home's temperature is now. Lower the humidity level to 35%. If you don't have an LED screen on your unit, set the manual control to maximum.This way, you will extract the maximum amount of humidity and make your home more comfortable.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know. Thanks.

I cannot change the set point on my humidity control. It is at 70%. If I press the up arrow i get 2 beeps and no change. When I press the down arrow there is no response at all. Is there some sort of...

The problem is, your trying to raise the humidity level, not lowering. These work in reverse of what you may think. Lower the level (Arrow Down) to 32% and it will continue to run, but will draw more humidity out of the air and will not stop until the water collection bucket is full or the humidity level reaches 32% or you turn it OFF.

When you pushed the Arrow Up Button, it was already on 70%, that's as high as it will go. But that means, you're trying to maintain a 70% humidity level. If it's Summer where you are, I don't think that's what you want.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know. Thanks.

Our dehumidifier turns on for only a few seconds, then shuts off.

Wendy, it's probably because the humidity level on the unit is set higher than the humidity level in the house. Keep in mind, the humidity level you set the control to, is not the amount extracted from the air. It's the level you want it to maintain. The higher the percentage level, the more humidity stays in the house. The lower the percentage level, the more humidity it removes, until the lower humidity level is reached. Then the humidifier will automatically shut OFF and/or the unit shuts OFF, because the bucket is full. Once it's emptied and replaced, if the unit needs to continue to extract humidity, it will start running again.

Hope this helped you solve the problem. Please let me know. Thanks.

User Manual has no guidelines.

When you first turn on the unit it is set to 40% humidity which is the lowest the unit will accept. You can only move the up arrow from that point. The 63 you are seeing is the actual humidity. If you want 50% youo need to press up arrow till 50 is displayed. The manual for this unit is terrible. Just leave it as it is and it will attempt to bring it down to 40%. 30 to 50 is the recommended humidity range.
