Common GE Washer Problems
- 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 smells. Leave the lid up between uses so the inside can dry, since closing it too soon can cause a mildew odor. Source: GE Appliances - Frequently Asked Questions About GE Washers
