Good Afternoon Friend,

I understand that you are hearing a high pitched noise coming from your Frigidaire dehumidifier, model# FDF50S, and want to know what it is. There are several possibilities that could be causing this high pitched sound. I suggest contacting either the manufacturer or your local authorized technician for further assistance. The technician will be able to diagnose your dehumidifier and determine exactly what the cause is. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

I forgot to turn off the dehumidifier while away. It froze. I just thawed it tonight, and now it's unplugged and a high pitched hissing sound. No odor from what I can tell, but am concerned
Its only a guess but I think the refrigerant may be leaking as a result of the freezing. This gas is toxic. Take it to a shop or dealer/specialist.

Dehumidifier seems to not be dehumidifying
If your dehumidifier doesn't seem to run often but the humidity in the room is high, try adjusting the humidistat control on the dehumidifier to a dryer setting. If the dehumidifier seems to run constantly, but there's little or no water in the container, there may be a problem in the refrigeration system. Try cleaning the unit. If that doesn't work, you can't repair the refrigeration system yourself, you need a qualified appliance repair technician to do that.

I purchased A Haier Dehumidifier 2 yrs ago on Aug 20/09( registered online) and it's been great...until today. i walked into the house, and the machine was making a VERY strange,high-pitched noise,...
Dont turn it back on your terminals on the compressor have vented causing all the freon and oil to leak out this is a fire hazzard. This dehumidifier is ready for the trash buy a new one soleus air is a lot better quality. Keep in mind all dehumidifiers are made very cheap so they are affordable and dont have a long life span. Let me know if this helps.

Fedders dehumidifier making high pitched noise
Hi,
The fam motor bearings are dry and need oil..wd-40 with the long spray nozzle maybe the best way to get oil on the bearings... some motors are sealed and it is very dificult the get them quiet again...spray right where the shaft comes out of the motor and then lean the unit back so the oil runs into the motor and let it set for awhile..then try it...

When running load noise coming from black cylinder
That part you identified is the compressor of the dehumidifier. Compressor is probably bad or going bad. When compressor go bad the valves start making noise and they lose alot of there efficiency.

My fedder dehumidifier m7dh45b2a makes an annoying noise
Hi,
This noise is the vibration from the compressor...sometimes things can come loose and magnify the noise...check for loose parts and tighten as needed...
The compressor may also be going bad...
