GE Dishwasher Symptoms and First Checks
- Dishwasher not cleaning. GE starts with installation: confirm the unit is on the hot water line, is level, and has a drain hose no higher than 72 inches, then clean filters and clear wash arm jets. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Poor Wash Performance
- 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
