This can include:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A faulty main control board<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A failed motor<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A defective inverter board<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wiring issues between parts<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proper troubleshooting involves checking each part to determine which one has failed.<\/span>\r\n\r\n[lwptoc numeration=\"none\"]\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools You\u2019ll Need<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before beginning, gather the following tools:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Multimeter<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phillips screwdriver<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flathead screwdriver<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pliers<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety First<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always disconnect the power before working on your washer.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unplug the appliance or switch off the breaker supplying power to the washer. The only time the washer should be powered during this process is when testing live voltage with a multimeter. If you\u2019re not comfortable performing live electrical testing, skip that step.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Access the Washer Parts<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start by removing the bottom access panel on the front of the washer.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the mounting screws.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the panel and set it aside.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Behind this panel you\u2019ll find wiring connections that lead to the inverter.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test Voltage from the Main Control<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is checking whether the main control board is sending power to the inverter.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set your washer to a spin cycle.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set your multimeter to AC voltage (V~).<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carefully plug the washer back in.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the three-wire connector, test from the blue wire to the red wire.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should measure approximately 120 volts AC.<\/span>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test Results<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No voltage present: The main control board has failed and will need replacement.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Voltage present: Continue troubleshooting the motor and inverter.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once finished, cancel the cycle, wait for the door to unlock, and unplug the washer again.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the Inverter<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, access the inverter for further testing.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the wires from the retainers on the washer base.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the screws securing the inverter.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slide the inverter toward the back and lift it out.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a flathead screwdriver to release the inverter cover.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disconnect the motor harness from the inverter.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test the Motor Windings<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To verify the motor is functioning correctly, test the motor windings using the multimeter.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set your multimeter to resistance (ohms).<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test the following wire pairs:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blue wire to white wire<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blue wire to red wire<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">White wire to red wire<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each reading should be around 6 ohms.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, test the two remaining wires, which should measure approximately 118 ohms.<\/span>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Motor Test Results<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If any reading shows open (no continuity) or is more than 0.5 ohms outside the expected range, the motor has failed.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If all readings fall within the expected range, the motor is likely working properly.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diagnosing the Inverter<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If both the main control board and motor test correctly, the inverter board becomes the most likely cause of the E4B error.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This diagnosis is made through the process of elimination after verifying that the other parts are functioning correctly.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacing the Inverter<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the inverter has failed, it will need to be replaced.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disconnect the remaining wiring connections.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the inverter from the washer.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connect the wires to the replacement inverter.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reinstall the inverter cover.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slide the inverter back into place on the base.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secure it with the mounting screws.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reassemble the Washer<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the inverter is installed:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reinstall the bottom access panel.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secure it with the screws you removed earlier.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug the washer back in.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test the Washer<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run a cycle to confirm the washer operates normally and the E4B error code no longer appears. If the repair was successful, the washer should now spin and operate as expected.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The GE washer E4B error code usually indicates a problem within the washer\u2019s motor control system. By testing the main control board, motor windings, and inverter, you can narrow down the faulty part and complete the repair.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the right tools and careful troubleshooting, this repair is manageable for DIY homeowners and can save the cost of a service call.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you still need replacement parts, grab your model number and head to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/\"><b>AppliancePartsPros.com<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
