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
Common GE Dishwasher Problems
- 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 odor. GE says to scrub the filter, run an empty hot cycle with a cleaner, and confirm the drain hose has a high loop or air gap to stop sink water from siphoning back. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher FAQs
