I have a DH305T7 dehumidifier that has worked great for a year or so. Recently it started turning on and off instead of running steadily. Now sometimes it won't turn on at all.

Clogged sensor with a mud. Clean it

Steve, have you checked the water collection bucket, to make sure it's installed properly. If it's not, the unit will not start. Remove the bucket and look in the top of the bucket for a float valve. If it's stuck in the up position, jiggle the handle to make it go DOWN. When you reinstall the bucket, be sure that it fits "squarely" in the bucket holder from top to bottom

Hope this helps you and thanks for choosing FixYa.

try a hard start kit it has an electronic start instead of mechanical and has a large start capacitor to give an extra punch to get it going if it is stuck i put240 volts just to the compressor for just for a sec...

sounds like the compressor is seized.

The PDF file of the owners manual (35 pages, in more than one language) is over 8000 kb. This site seems to limit posts to 150 kb. It does not show an exploded parts diagram either. The manufacturer likes to use djvu files which download faster, but are not supported by "Fixya". I don't know what parts you are calling the interior panel connectors. Although we cannot ask for email addresses, I've seen some people post some.,....
