What a GE Washer Technician Deals With
The drain hose should use the included anti-siphon clip and must not be pushed too deep into the standpipe or taped in place, which can siphon water out of the washer. Source: GE Appliances - Front Load Washer - Troubleshooting
Too much or non-HE detergent can cause oversudsing that slows the final spin and triggers a suds lock. Source: GE Appliances - Frequently Asked Questions About GE Washers
What GE Says to Check First
- Washer leaking. Clean the underside and folds of the door gasket, make sure the detergent drawer is closed and not clogged, use less HE detergent, and inspect the fill and drain hoses. Source: GE Appliances - Front Load Washer - Leaking Water
- Washer not draining. Wait out normal pauses between cycle steps, then look for a kinked or clogged drain hose, a drain set too high, or a clog shown by a Po code or flashing Rinse light. Source: GE Appliances - Top Load Washer - Will Not Drain
