I understand your frustration. It sounds like your GE washing machine is having some problems. Resetting the washer may help to fix the issue. Here are the steps on how to reset a GE washing machine WPDH8900J1WW:
1. Unplug the washer from the power outlet.
2. Wait for 2 minutes.
3. Plug the washer back in.
4. Turn on the washer.
5. Select a cycle and press the start button.
If the washer still does not work, you can try resetting the drum motor. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Unplug the washer from the power outlet.
2. Wait for 1 minute.
3. Plug the washer back in.
4. Open and close the lid of the washer 6 times within 12 seconds.
5. Close the lid and press the start button.
If the washer still does not work after resetting the drum motor, you may need to contact a qualified appliance repair technician.
Here are some other things you can try before resetting the washer:
* Make sure that the washer is properly leveled.
* Check the water supply hoses for leaks.
* Clean the lint trap.
* Check the detergent dispenser for clogs.
I hope this helps!
Check to make sure that the washing machine is fully plugged in and then next, check to see if there is a tripped circuit breaker. Reset the breaker and try to turn on your washing machine and try to start the washer.If it still is not turning on then it is a damaged power cord that needs to be replaced.
Two possibilities Denise.
1: Controls/timer is malfunctioning and supplying constant power to the pump( in which case you need new control board)
2: Water level sensor thinks there is water left in the washer and the first thing a washer wants to do is get rid of it before starting new cycle.
Unfortunately cant be sure which one without professional diag.
I suggest calling a repair company to do that.
Good Luck
Same problem (but without any smell). You should try to reset the two computer boards in the washer. You do this by 1) unplugging machine and wait for 30 secs; 2) plug in machine; and 3) open and fully close the lid at least 5 times. This resets computer boards, which can get messed up by power surges, etc.
