Error Code HUMIDITY_SENSOR

Humidity sensor disconnection or failure prevents humidity monitoring

Moderate

Address soon - your appliance may not work properly

Also displayed as: Humidity Sensor Error

What This Means

Bad connector contact at CN60 pin 7 and CN90 pin 8; Open circuit in sensor wiring; Short circuit in humidity sensor; Water infiltration or condensation in sensor; Sensor age or calibration drift

What actually causes this:

The humidity sensor lost electrical connection or the sensor element failed, preventing measurement of compartment humidity

First Thing to Check

Make sure CN60 connector is fully seated and look for moisture around the sensor

Parts Involved

Humidity/Ambient SensorMAIN PCB CN60 and CN90 connectorsR218 resistor (IC01 MICOM #8)

How to Fix

  1. 1

    Check CN60 connector insertion at MAIN PCB

  2. 2

    Measure voltage between CN60 pin 7 (W/YEL) and CN90 pin 8 (FLAT_WHT)

  3. 3

    Measure resistance between same pins (should be about 50 ohms when open)

  4. 4

    Compare to humidity table DATA2

  5. 5

    Check for water damage or condensation
