Leo, have you removed and emptied the buck and reinstalled it? If not, that's the first thing you need to do. If you have already done that, remove the bucket and if it's equipped with a float valve in the top of the bucket, make sure the float is not stuck in the UP position. If it is, jiggle the arm of the float, so that it will return to the DOWN position.

If not equipped with a float valve, when you reinstall the bucket, be sure that it fits "squarely" from top to button into the holder.

NOTE: Before attempting any of the above, turn the unit OFF and unplug it it.

Hope this helps you troubleshoot and solve the problem.

Not running- CH 24 code on the Humidity setting & empty bucket red light flashing even though bucket is empty and in place correctly

If the bucket is in place correctly, turn the unit OFF & unplug it for 10 minutes. This should allow the electronics to rest and revert back to the original factory setting after you plug it back in and turn it ON. From there you should be able reset the controls to your liking.

Hope this helped. Thanks for choosing FixYa.

UNIT ICED UP. TEMP. IN CRAWL SPACE ABOVE 60 DEGREES. AFTER DE-ICING UNIT IT RAN FOR A WHILE AND THEN STOPPED. IT SHOWS CODE CH 01AND THE BUCKET FULL LIGHT IS BLINKING, NOT STEADY ON. POWERED DOWN UNIT...

When you powered down the unit, did you just turn if OFF using the controls on the unit Or did you unplug it entirely? If you didn't unplug it, it won't reset itself. Leave it unplugged for at least 30 minutes. As far as the blinking bucket full light is concerned ... It's possible that the bucket is slightly out of kilter and is only making partial contact with the safety switch. Especially if it's sitting on uneven soil or when the bucket get partially full the weight of the bucket is pulling it out of kilter because it's sitting on soil, rather than a hard floor. If nothing else, place it on a 1/2" piece of plywood or OSB and level it.

To be totally candid, I have some concerns about leaving a dehumidifier running, unattended in the crawl space of a house. There's to many things that could go wrong that would have disastrous results.
