UD501KOG5 is LG’s model number for this 50-pint dehumidifier. LG’s own US product page flags this exact model discontinued (read 24 September 2026); it is out of production but not out of the field, and it is exactly the kind of model that has nowhere else to turn for support. The most common service call on this unit is: bucket-full sensor shutting the unit down with an empty bucket.
Service calls on this dehumidifier most often trace to one of a short list: bucket-full sensor shutting the unit down with an empty bucket, condensate pump or the continuous-drain hose backing up, or compressor running continuously without the room humidity actually dropping. We confirm which one applies against the model and serial number before ordering a part.
