What Makes GE Washer Repairs Different

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
- Lid won't unlock. Wait for the basket to coast to a complete stop after spinning, since the lid stays locked until it does. Source: GE Appliances - Top Load Washer - Display and Status / Feature Lights
