A GE washer is designed to move slightly, about 1/4 inch, which is normal. However, excessive noise or vibration could be due to the rubber leveling legs not firmly touching the floor; adjust them so they are all firmly touching the floor and locked in place. An unbalanced load can also cause this issue; open the door and manually redistribute the load.
Why is water not entering my GE GFWH2400 Washer, or entering slowly?
If water isn't entering your GE washer or is entering slowly, first ensure that both the hot and cold water faucets are fully turned on. The water valve screens may also be clogged; clean them using a brush or toothpick.
Why is my GE GFWH2400 Washer leaking water?
If your GE washer is leaking water, inspect the door gasket for damage and ensure it is correctly seated. A clogged dispenser can also cause leaks; remove the drawer and clean both it and the inside of the dispenser box. Incorrect detergent usage leading to oversudsing could be the culprit; use less detergent. For new installations, check the dispenser box for cracks.
What to do if clothes are too wet after washing in my GE GFWH2400?
If your clothes are too wet after a wash in your GE washer, the load might be unbalanced; try redistributing the clothes and running a drain & spin or rinse & spin cycle. Another potential cause is a clogged pump, or the household drain might be clogged, so check your plumbing. Also, ensure there is an air gap between the drain hose and the drain to prevent siphoning.
How to prevent snags, holes, tears, or excessive wear in my GE Washer?
To prevent damage to your clothes in your GE washer, avoid overloading it and do not exceed the maximum recommended load sizes. Always remove loose items from pockets, and fasten snaps, hooks, buttons, and zippers before washing.
Why are my clothes wrinkled after washing in my GE GFWH2400?
Wrinkling in your GE washer can occur due to improper sorting; avoid mixing heavy items with light items. Overloading the washer can also cause wrinkles; ensure clothes have enough room to move freely. Finally, using the incorrect wash cycle for the fabric type can lead to wrinkling; match the cycle selection to the fabric you are washing.
Why are my clothes grayed or yellowed after washing in my GE GFWH2400 Washer?
If your clothes are grayed or yellowed after washing in your GE washer, you might not be using enough detergent; use the correct amount. Ensure you are using HE (high efficiency) detergent. Hard water can also cause this issue; use a water conditioner like Calgon or install a water softener.
Why is the water temperature incorrect in my GE Washer?
If the water temperature is incorrect in your GE washer, make sure your house water heater is delivering water at 120°–140°F (48°–60°C). Also, ensure that the hoses are connected to the correct faucets.
