Frigidaire FDL50R1 Dehumidifier Questions & Answers
Dehumidifier reads 30% no matter
Hello there,
Your guess is right as to what the cause of the problem is. The relative humidity (RH) sensor is faulty and need to be replaced. That is why it is stuck on 30%. When the RH is faulty, the compressor will not run. And the dehumidifier will not do anything.
Hope the moisture collected in the bucket is removed, becuse that also could be a cause of the problem. If the bucket that collects moisture is full, the sensor will send a message to the compressor and have it shut down automatically till the bucket is empty.
Once it is confirmed that the moisture collecting bucket is empty and it is still not reading anything other than 30%, then that confirms the problem to be from the RH sensor.
Hope this helped.
All the best.

Read the instruction manual thoroughly and ensure you did everything exactly. If it still doesn't work it is faulty and should be returned.
What should I do when the air filter light comes on?
Good Afternoon Friend, that's a great question!
Typically the FILTER RESET light will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. To locate the filter, remove the bucket and the pull filter downwards. The filter can be clean by using clean water or vacuum cleaner extension hose. If you use clean water, please allow the filter to dry. Once you reinstalled the filter then replace the bucket. To extinguish the light simply press the FILTER button and your dehumidifier should resume normal operations. Remember it is best to clean your filter every two weeks based on normal operating conditions. Hope this helps! - Z

How do you unclog the dehumifier?
Hey friend, thank you for the post!
I understand that your dehumidifier continuously is set at 50-60 and the clean filter light has not stopped. I would like to ask you some additional questions in order to provide you better assistance. First, does the appliance still collect water? Secondly, have you tried to reset the appliance? I look forward to your comment back so that I can further help you. -Matt
What is A5 on our frididare dehumidifier?
Hello Friend, this is Z. I am happy to assist you!
If you are receiving an error code AS on your Frigidaire dehumidifier, it typically means that your dehumidifier is experiencing a sensor failure. Because it is a smaller appliance, repairs are often more costly than the actual appliance replacement. Is your appliance still in warranty? If so, you might want to reach out directly to the manufacturer to determine the coverage on your dehumidifier and the procedures to any potential remedy in that regard. Best of luck!
How to measure humidity in a room
Good Afternoon Friend,
I understand that you want to know how to measure the humidity in a room with your Frigidaire dehumidifier, model# FDL50R1. Typically, your appliance will not measure the humidity and tell you exactly what the level is. I suggest placing your dehumidifier in the room you want it in, and turning it on to the continuous mode. The display will show "CO". Leave it at this setting for the first 3-4 days. Once the 3-4 days has passed, I suggest setting it to the 50%, 60%, or 70% setting and change it to your liking. If it is more humid in the room than you would like, put the setting lower. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your washer status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.
-Best Regards-
