How GE Washers Are Built
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
Common GE Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
