Danby DDR5009REE Dehumidifier Repair

My Danby DDR5009REE was 3 months out of warranty when it started shutting off randomly. The digital display was flickering and I suspected a bad circuit board due to excessive moisture build up inside the unit. After bypassing the float switch, the freeze protection, and thermal overload protection, I knew it was either the humidity sensor or circuit board had gone bad. Since the display seemed to read humidity correctly, I concluded the board was bad. The symptoms exhibited were the unit would turn on, fan would run, but compressor would either never engage or engage briefly and then the unit would shut off while flashing the "full" light. Here's how to fix it yourself without having to spend more than 25 cents!
