Given their cost of a new unit and the rip off sears service price your
much better off replacing the unit

Heck, and I always thought this was a repair newsgroup. Seras isn't the
only option for repair.

I looked up the unit in the parts database and found that I can order a
replacement sensor assembly for $21. I will replace that first, and if
there is still a coolant issue once the humidistat issue is resolved, will
bring it in for warranty service (since the warranty only covers the
sealed coolant assembly).

Sounds like a plan. But do take another look at the humidistat. There
may be some magic screw you have overlooked.

It's quite possible for these things to shift calibration. It's probably
just a strip of a plastic-like material (used to be human hair but I don't
think they use that anymore!) that changes length depending on humidity.

The humidity setting is via a digital touch panel in front. I don't see
any way to tweak the adjustment as the sensor assembly is simply attached
by a long cable to the back of the PC board on the control panel.

What's in the sensor assembly? If it changes resistance or something like
that perhaps it could be faked out.

I haven't removed or opened it. It's a small white box with a grating in
front, sort of looks like those little piezo sound transducers. Has a
3-pin connector on the bottom. Will look more closely when I open the case
to install the replacement.
