Ge washing machines have a fantastic hidden diagnostic mode that will assist you in troubleshooting a wide range of issues such as dealing with a GE washer not working.
It’s never a good time for your washer to go bad. If a washing machine has a proper display panel, an error code in a readable format, such as e10 or f08, will be displayed.
What does my error code indicate? As the owner of a washing machine, you should have a list ready.
GE Washing Machine Error Codes: Front Load Washer
How To Check GE Washing Machine Error Codes
Let’s Started To Knowing How To Use The Service Mode On A GE Front Load Washer.
1. Close the door.
2. Turn off the power by pushing the power button. Check that the screen is blank before attempting to enter service mode.
3. Remove the washer’s power cord for at least 30 seconds.
4. Reconnect the power cord and go to the next step within 30 seconds of resuming power.
5. Use the signal-delay start-signal-delay start command.
6. After successfully entering the washer into service mode, the screen will display t01 and the door will be locked.
Caution: Never try to turn off the electricity while the washer is in service mode. It could result in a faulty control board.
To exit service mode, press signal — delay start — signal — delay start .
List of Front Load GE Washing Machine Error Codes: Common Fault
FAULT CODESSOLUTION
E22 Fill timeout -No fill/slow fill. Fill time exceeds 8 minutes. Check water valve functions.
E23 Flood protect drain. In run state, any time the overflow be detected. Check water valve or water sensor.
E31 Drain timeout. Slow drain:
- Machine will have water.
- Not full. Check drain pump — t05.
E38 Dispenser error. Correct reservoir is not found and 8 switches are seen when motor is running.
E39 Dispenser timeout. No switches found in 45 seconds. Check dispenser — t12
E42 Drive motor. Motor excess current draw. Check drive motor — t10 tumble, t11 spin, t13 spin.
E45 No speed feedback. Motor speed lost. Check Motor — t10 tumble, t11 spin, T13 spin.
E46 Drive motor — over temperature. Inverter over temperature. Power down (unplug) washer, wait 30 seconds and retry — use whites cycle sanitize temperature — if reoccurs, replace drive motor.
E47 Heat sink — over temperature. Inverter over temperature.E48Drive motor — open. Open motor phase. Check motor for open winding — if OK, replace inverter.
E4A Under volts. Under volts — DC bus voltage (inverter). Check Motor.
E4B Power up problems. Software/hardware problems. Check Motor or Motor windings.
E4C Over volts. Over volts — DC bus (inverter). Check Motor — t10 tumble, t11 spin, t13 spin. Power down (unplug) washer, wait 30 seconds and retry — if reoccurs, replace inverter.
E50 Drive/Control Interface system. Unexpected Motor Fault.
E52 Main control wake-up error. Lost communication between control and drive motor after initial success. Check connections/cables between main control and inverter.
E54 No motor response. Lost communication between control and drive motor.
E56 Electronic control. An unexpected reset has happened. Non-recoverable error. Main control board must be replaced.
E57 Checksum failure. Software error occurs — checksum failure. Non-recoverable error. Main control board must be replaced.E58Communication failure. Communication error occurs.
E60 Door lock switch failure. Switch failure occurs during lock. Power down (unplug) machine, wait 30 seconds and retry. Check wiring and connections between door lock.
E61 Door unlock and main control switch failure. Switch failure occurs during unlock. Power down (unplug) machine, wait 30 seconds and retry.
E62 System contact failure. Load failure occurs. Heater/pump/ pressure switch/ door lock/water valves/dispenser motor.
E63 Unexpected open door. Switch failure occurs during wake-up.
E64 Unexpected open door while running. Switch failure occurs during cycle.
E65 Water level sensor failure — foam. Pressure sensor frequency out of range.
E66 Water temperature sensor open. Water temperature sensor open.
E67 Water temperature sensor shorted. Water temperature sensor shorted. Check water temperature sensor — t07.
E70/E71 — Keypad errors
This code is generated when dirt, grease, or other foreign items become lodged between the keypad and the front casing. Clean the control after removing it from the casing. If this does not resolve the issue, replace the control.
NOTE:
It’s important to note fault codes should only be used to help identify those components which require testing. Never replace a part based solely on an fault code. The control can generate a false fault if the right conditions exist . Use the code only as a reference and always check the component before replacing.
