What Makes GE Washer Repairs Different
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
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
