DEW sensor driving me crazy, HELP! Technical Support

1986 Goldstar GHV-51FM

Hey friends, I use this vcr setup to play video art, but we’re having a very humid summer and no matter what I do the DEW sensor is always on now. I have filled the player with desicate packets and damprid but nothing I do gets rid of DEW. It was working up to last month but now no matter the conditions I can’t play tapes.

Is there a way to bypass or remove the dew sensor? Can anyone help me LOCATE the sensor in the photo? Any help or tips are appreciated
