Hi all, Does anyone know where i could get one of these, It's for a electriq 12L dehumidifier, the wires do not unplug

 

Try googling HIS-06 humidity sensor.

Thanks for the reply but I think it's got to be the exact one in the picture, The wires do not unplug from the sensor, I've found one image of the exact one on the Internet but it's all in Chinese I've even emailed electriq who make the dehumidifier but can't get anywhere.

 

If you think that the sensor needs to be replaced, you can order the sensor alone and just replace the sensor and not the entire board.

 

How do you know it is bad ?

Such one? https://www.lcsc.com/product-detail/C235310.html

Darn near an exact match. Just googled CH-07J-3D0A and found the above. Same number.
Doesn't have the same hole layout and does not have a set of through holes for a diode. Other than that the sensor appears to have RH-HIS-06-N, same as your board sensor. Even has the same wiring "GND", "DATA", "VCC".

 

The replacement has a plug for easy install. Your board has wires hard wired to the board. You COULD unsolder the connector from the replacement board and unsolder the wires from your board and they may fit the same hole pattern. If not - just wire the wires directly to the board. Be sure to support them so they don't break. Hot melt glue should do well enough.

 

Do the wires to that sensor unplug at their other ends??
AND, more important, why do you think that the sensor has failed?? Usually it is some other part that fails. Did you test the sensor?? If you did, what were the results?? REALLY! The sensor is not likely to be the failed part, so please explain what causes you to believe that it has failed.

The replacement I linked to has the board and the cable. The TS' cable is soldered to the sensor board but it's likely it plugs into the main board.

 

ONCE AGAIN, why does the ts SUSPECT THE SENSOR as being the failed component? ? ?
The controller module/PCB has a lot of other components, some of which are more highly stressed.
AND most of those components are less expensive and more available.

I am not the only one to ask why the TS believes that the problem is the sensor. IF the TS is not willing to explain why they think that the sensor is the problem, at least explain the reason to replace it.

Because the fault code on my dehumidifier told me so, thanks anyway.

 

OK, that is a fair reason. But before replacing it, I suggest a careful inspection of the connector end of the sensor wires and connector, as well as the solder joint of the connector pins on the circuit board. My reasoning is that sensors are usually a low-stressed part of most systems, as well as being more closely watched to assure adequate quality. If the actual problem is an easy to fix connection issue that will be useful for us to know.

OK thanks for that, will have a look.

 

Hello,

Also check the connector of the pcb for corrodation.
