How GE Washers Are Built

On electronic top load models the lid locks automatically during parts of the cycle and stays locked until the basket has coasted to a full stop. Source: GE Appliances - Top Load Washer - Display and Status / Feature Lights

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

What GE Says to Check First
