Why are my clothes grayed or yellowed after washing in my GE Washer?

  Felicia MayoSep 3, 2025
  To address grayed or yellowed clothes from your GE Washer, use the correct amount of detergent, and ensure it is HE (high efficiency) detergent. If you have hard water, use the hottest water safe for the fabric. Make sure your water heater is delivering water at 120°–140°F (48°–60°C). If the detergent is not dissolving, try a liquid HE detergent. Sort clothes by color to prevent dye transfer; if a fabric label states to wash separately, unstable dyes may be indicated.

Why does the control time change on my GE HFW350?

  Becky HernandezSep 16, 2025
  The control time on your GE Washer may change because the washer may need to rebalance the load during the spin cycle to reduce vibrations. When this happens, the estimated time is increased, causing the time left to increase or jump. This is normal operation.

  If your GE Washer has no power or isn't working, first, ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Next, verify that both the hot and cold water faucets are fully turned on. Check your house circuit breakers or fuses and replace or reset them as needed, ensuring the washer has a separate outlet. Note that the first time the washer is plugged in, it performs automatic system checks, which may take up to 20 seconds before you can use it. This is normal.

  Your GE washer might be causing snags, holes, tears, rips, or excessive wear on clothes due to: * Overloading: Do not exceed the maximum recommended load sizes. See the Loading section for recommended maximum load sizes. * Objects left in pockets: Remove loose items from pockets, such as pens, pencils, nails, and screws. * Fasteners and sharp objects: Fasten snaps, hooks, buttons, and zippers. Remove sharp objects left in pockets.

Why is my GE Washer not draining, spinning, or tumbling?

  If your GE Washer is not draining, spinning, or tumbling, it could be due to several reasons. First, the load might be unbalanced; try redistributing the clothes and running a Rinse & Spin cycle. If you're washing a small load with heavy and light items, increase the load size. Also, the pump filter might be clogged; refer to the Care and Cleaning section for instructions on cleaning it. Ensure the drain hose isn't kinked or that the washer isn't sitting on it, and check your household plumbing for clogs, calling a plumber if necessary. Finally, make sure the drain hose isn't siphoning by ensuring there's an air gap between the hose and drain and that it's not inserted more than 7 inches into the drain pipe.
