Know Your GE Dishwasher
How GE Dishwashers Are Built
Many models use removable fine and ultra fine filters at the bottom of the tub that the owner must take out and rinse, and some water sitting in the sump is normal on ultra fine filter models. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Does Not Drain
Active Flood Protect on GE Profile models detects water leaks and helps prevent overflows. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile Dishwashers
What GE Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not filling. GE says to confirm the hot water valve under the sink is fully open and the supply line is not kinked, then check that the flood float moves freely. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher FAQs
- Dishwasher noise. GE says humming and swishing are normal, but rattling or grinding can mean a hard object is caught in the pump and steady squealing can point to a worn pump motor. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher FAQs
When to Call for GE Dishwasher Repair
