The bucket full light blinks even though it is empty and there is "01" in the screen where the digital humidity level is indicated. Pushing the up or down arrow does not change the "01" number. Unit won't run at all.
Error code 01 - unit has a sealed system leak; most warranties are 5 years.
Testimonial: "Thanks, this information was helpful in helping to make my decision on whether to pay the $29.00 service fee to diagnose the problem. "
So we get 2 different answers here on FixYa, for the same problem with this Sears dehumidifier with error code "01" and blinking "bucket full" light:
1) circuit failure/ bad circuit control board
2) sealed system leak (covered under 5 year warranty)
Which one is it?

Take out the bucket and locate the bucket full switch inside the cabinet. Depress the switch and see if it comes on. If so, you may have to add a shim to the bucket or strap it in with a bungie cord as the bucket is jiggling and makes the unit think that it has been removed.
