What to do if my GE Washer won’t drain?
If your GE Washer is not draining, check if the drain hose is kinked or if the washer is sitting on it. Straighten the hose and ensure the top of the drain outlet is less than 8 ft (2.44 m) above the floor.
Why is my GE Washer leaking water?
If your GE Washer is leaking water, try the following: switch to High Efficiency detergent. Use less detergent, especially if you have soft water or a lightly soiled load. Ensure fill and drain hoses are tightly connected with rubber washers installed, and the drain hose is correctly inserted and secured. Check for clogs in your household plumbing and ensure the drain hose isn't rubbing against the wall. Also, tighten hoses at the faucets and consider replacing fill hoses every 5 years due to constant water pressure.
Why are my clothes grayed or yellowed after washing in my GE GNW128P Washer?
If clothes are grayed or yellowed after washing in your GE Washer, ensure you are following the detergent manufacturer’s directions and consider using a water conditioner or softener if you have hard water. Make sure your water heater is delivering water at 120°F–140°F (48°C–60°C). Avoid overloading the washer, loading clothes loosely no higher than the top row of holes in the basket. Sort clothes by color to prevent dye transfer, and separate lint producers from lint collectors. For small loads, use a shorter wash time with the Light Soil setting. If detergent isn't dissolving, rewash with liquid detergent and warmer water. Loosely load clothes around the outside of the basket to prevent overloading.

Remove any loose items like pins or objects from pockets, and turn knits inside out to prevent snagging.
