Common GE Dishwasher Problems
- 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

What Washington Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Washington come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
New Jersey has no license specific to appliance repair; plumbing work is reserved to state-licensed master plumbers, and gas piping work on the customer side of the meter falls under HVACR contractor licensing, both overseen by boards in the Division of Consumer Affairs.

In New Jersey, you can check a license with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs License Verification System or report a problem to the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs.
