What GE Says to Check First
- Front load washer not draining. Check the drain hose for kinks and correct standpipe placement, clean the pump filter at the bottom front, and rebalance the load. Source: GE Appliances - Front Load Washer - Troubleshooting
- Washer not spinning. Allow for pauses between cycle steps, confirm power and that the lid is fully closed, and redistribute the load if the Spin light flashes or the display reads balancing. Source: GE Appliances - Top Load Washer - Does Not Spin

Around Los Angeles
Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP), which supplies Los Angeles, reports hardness of varies by area and source blend: about 124-137 mg/L (moderately hard) for LA Aqueduct filtration plant water, rising to roughly 300 mg/L (very hard) where Metropolitan Water District Colorado River supplies or local groundwater are used, as in parts of eastern LA and the Harbor area. Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
