What a GE Dishwasher Technician Deals With
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
The UltraFresh System empties the water sump after the cycle and uses a fan to pull fresh air through the tub to limit odor. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile Dishwashers
What GE Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not starting. GE says to check the wall switch and breaker, latch the door fully, turn off Control Lock, and on top-control models close the door within a few seconds of pressing Start. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher FAQs
- 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
Signs Your GE Dishwasher Needs a Technician
