GE washer codes

On a washer the code appears on the digital display or as a pattern of flashing cycle lights. Note it exactly, including any dashes or sub-codes, then unplug the washer for five minutes and run a short drain cycle to see whether it returns. GE writes letters and numbers together with no space, so E22 is one code, not E2 and 2.

Models covered: GFW850SPNRS, GFW550SSMWW, GTW680BSJWS, WCVH6260KWW.

About GE codes

GE Appliances, now owned by Haier, mixes legacy GE boards with newer connected platforms. Washers and dryers tend to use E or D codes, ranges and microwaves use F codes, and refrigerators show Er codes. The codes apply to model numbers such as GDF630PSMSS, GDT665SSNSS and GTD65EBSJ0WS; check the label on your unit to confirm yours.
