GE washer no spin cycle, motor code is "brake resistor circuit open". I measure 47 Ohms. What is correct value?
The correct value of the brake resistor circuit for your GE washing machine may vary depending on the specific model and other factors. However, according to some sources, the typical resistance for a GE washing machine brake resistor circuit is around 25-30 Ohms.
If you are measuring 47 Ohms, this could indicate that there is an issue with the circuit, which could be causing the error code and the problem with the spin cycle. You may want to check for any loose connections or damaged components in the circuit, and consider replacing the resistor if necessary. If you are not comfortable with electrical repairs, it may be best to contact a qualified technician for assistance.

GE 465 top load washer corrugated drain hose was wet feeling about half way up and water all over floor after washing.
It sounds like there may be an issue with the drain hose on your GE 465 top-load washer. The fact that the drain hose is wet halfway up suggests that there may be a leak in the hose. This could be caused by a hairline crack or a problem with the connection between the hose and the drain outlet.
One possibility is that the extra rinse option and the maximum water level setting on the tub caused a higher volume of water to be drained through the hose, which may have caused an existing issue with the hose to become more pronounced.
Another possibility is that the internal drain pump is not functioning properly and the water is not being pumped out of the machine properly, causing the overflow.
It is recommended to contact the manufacturer's customer service or a professional technician to have the washer inspected and repaired. They can check the hose and connections, and also the drain pump to determine the cause of the problem and fix it accordingly.
It's important to keep in mind that attempting to repair a washer can be dangerous if you're not familiar with the proper procedures and safety precautions. It's best to let a professional technician handle the repair.
