hi…i have a ge top load washer …it will not start..dead…i thought maybe the gfi plug…but i plugged it into another source and it still will not start….i did reset the gfi and when i plugged it back in i heard a pop…..not good i know, but i do not know where to start to check it out…..is it fused?? or do you think something else is blown?
this is what i found elsewhere?? just an fyi…not sure what to think…
Cause 1 Thermal Fuse
If the washer overheats, the thermal fuse will blow. If the line fuse blows, the washer won’t start. To determine if the thermal fuse is at fault, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the fuse does not have continuity, replace it. In addition, you should investigate and resolve the problem that caused the fuse to blow. If you don’t resolve the underlying issue, the new fuse will blow too.
Cause 2 Main Control Board
The main control board might be defective. However, the main control board is rarely at fault for this symptom. Before replacing the main control board, first check all of the more commonly defective parts.

I have replaced the defrost heater and thermostat and I still have trouble with the unit not defrosting. Is there a way to force the control board into defrost to check/test the defrost circuit? I’m not a GE dealer so I don’t have tech support available to me like I do with Frigidaire. I own a small appliance store and have an account with Marcone and Sundberg. Can you give me any support? Thank you David Little 217-452-3219

Hello, I love your new website.
My customer has a GE French Door fridge with the freezer on the bottom. I think the board that controls the fans is bad. I am the forth technician to service this fridge. She has had nothing but problems with it since she bought it. A year after, GE replaced the compressor. After that 3 boards were replaced. And more! Now this?..

If you open the following link, that is the noise being made during agitation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvDDGzhkHu0 . I have removed the Rotor motor and found that at some point, a small amount of water made it’s way to the Rotor Motor as I could see water streaks formed as the motor spun, at speed. Never saw any water on the floor beneath the Washing Machine. I had the Agitator removed at the same time, and found no substantial movement in the shaft at top or bottom. No wear to the splines in the agitator/Impeller or Impeller Insert. The teeth on the Mode Shifter showed some very minor wear. No visible damage to either the Stator or Rotor Motor. Is there a most likely failed part causing the noise or a way to test to find the failed or failing part. My research so far has suggested any of the above mentioned parts as well as the DSM Module. FYI: in searching parts, the Bearing Assy shows as not available. I had GE Parts do some research and the new part # is WH38x24734..Please advise.

This is a coin operated electric dryer. When it is started, the minutes display shows 45 and the light on the top panel is on for “cooling down” instead of “drying”. The heat cycles on and off and the time display counts down normally to 1 minute and remains at 1 minute, and the dryer continues to run and heat and doesn’t shut off. I’m suspecting the timer is the issue. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I have a GE ref model GFSS6KKYCSS, serial LT902433 Defrost drain tube for refrigerator (frost free section) is plugged. I used my steamer from the top and bottom (behind refrigerator by drain pan). The water in the ref was hot, but the water would not drain, so I don’t think it is ice blocking the tube. Tried sliding a wire through the drain tube, but the wire was stopped somewhere in the middle. Ran wire both ways thinking if something was in the tube, but no luck.
Is there anything else I can do? Is this drain tube accessible from any other place in the unit?

GE Profile french door unit, the mullion between the 2 fresh food doors gets sweaty / condensation on it. Turned the energy saver button off as instructed but it still doesn’t stop the condensation on the mullion. Also the ice chute get ice build up in it ( not frost like when a door recess goes bad, I mean solid chunks of ice.) Any suggestion to this ?

I purchased a new water line with dispenser on end to replace the one on the door of my freezer. I looked at some repair videos for GE side by side and they all had the water line dispenser fastened onto the dispenser unit which were easy to see and unfasten. Mine has the line coming out from the inside of the door without any visible fasteners. Do I need to take the freezer door off and take the back off? Boy I sure did not want to do that!!
Is that what I need to do to get to the water dispenser? If yes, do you have a video for taking the door off and the separating the back of the door from the front?
