How GE Washers Are Built
Electronic models sense load size and type before and during fill, and they detect an out-of-balance load and try to redistribute it, which can keep the spin from reaching full speed. Source: GE Appliances - Top Load Washer - Display and Status / Feature Lights
Common GE Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
