Washer won't drain or leaving standing water? This drain pump removes water at cycle end. DIY-friendly repair, typically 30 minutes with basic tools.
I opened the cover panel of the control board. I visually checked for burns on the board and verified all connectors were firmly seated. I opened the bottom of the unit, and I saw the service manual in a zip-lock bag. From this manual, I verified that the drain pump resistance is good, the start capacitor is good, and the lid switch is good. I entered diagnostic service mode. Persistent alarms are 4 and 25.Error 4 means Reset Monitor, while Error 25 means Pressure Sensor Dropout. I... Read more
Connects motor to drum for rotation during wash cycles. Replace if washer won't spin, makes squealing noises, or drum doesn't turn. Verify fit with model.
I found a YouTube video, order the parts about midnight Saturday and-they came in the mail before lunch on Tuesday. I laid the washer on the rear panel, removed both pulleys to clean them, installed the speed sensor. bolted the pulleys back in place, installed the new belt-making sure it was centered and everything moved freely, and attached the belt/pulleys cover. I set the washer back up, reattached the water lines, placed the drain tube, and plugged in back in. Works like new !!! 30 minutes... Read more
Washer won't start, spin, or complete cycles? A faulty main control board often causes these issues. Moderate DIY repair, typically under 30 minutes.
GE Washer m/n GTW460ASJ6WW would allow other fill levels, but when set to "super" it would never stop filling. Checked water inlet valve (by initiating a fill and unplugging the unit) to see if the inlet valve was sticking open, that was not the issue. Decided to replace the board even though it is a significant fraction of the cost of a new washer. Local appliance stores didn't have the board but APP did, and of course, they are open 24/7 while my local part stores have decided the weekend is... Read more
This Tub Seal is an OEM replacement part for GE washing machines that is responsible for preventing water from leaking from the tub. This part is located at the base of the washing machine tub and creates a seal between the tub and the transmission to prevent water from leaking out during the wash cycle. This part fixes the following symptoms-
Causes of a bad tub seal can range from normal wear and tear to a misaligned tub or an overloaded washing machine, which puts extra pressure on the seal. Additionally, the buildup of hard water minerals can degrade the seal's material over time. This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
I put this repair off for a long time because I knew the machine would have to be completely torn down to fix it. The repair videos give you the impression that this condition is caused by a bad 'Tub Bearing' which takes a long time to replace but only costs about $15. Don't be lulled into thinking you can fix this for $15. The 'Tub Bearing' is really only a bushing. The one I removed from my washer looked fine but I replaced it anyways. The real problem here is GE's poor design which allows a... Read more

Supports the inner tub for smooth rotation during wash and spin cycles. Replace if you hear loud grinding noise or see oil stains. Verify fit by model.
After researching the problem on this site, I realized that the most likely cause was a bad bearing contained in the shaft & tube assembly. Essentially, the tub seal failed & allowed water to travel down the shaft & into the housing containing the bearing. I confirmed this by pulling the front cover off of the unit & noticed some brown water pooled directly under the shaft & tube assembly. I followed the disassembly instructions on this site & it wasn't too bad but did take some time as pretty... Read more
The Clutch is an OEM part for GE washing machines. This component is essential for engaging the washer’s transmission to facilitate the proper spinning and agitating of the drum during wash cycles.
Over time, the clutch can wear out or become damaged due to frequent use, heavy loads, or mechanical stress. Replacing a faulty clutch is crucial for maintaining the washer’s performance and efficiency.
Symptoms of a bad clutch include:
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
I ordered the parts, after assuring my diagnosis was correct from APP’s knowledgeable representative, and they were shipped quickly. I tipped the washer and disassembled the parts to be replaced and then installed a new clutch, clutch spring and mode shifter. Read more

Fix a washer that won't agitate or has broken fins. This agitator assembly snaps in place in under 5 minutes. Simple DIY repair, no tools required.
Ordered agitator. Removed old agitator by prying up one side of the agitator and then moving the agitator around in a circle while prying up a little at a time because the clips pop off underneath separately and once a few of them come loose the remaining slide off making a clean removal rather than the "jerking-straight-up-and-into-your-face-and-neck-disaster-waiting-to -happen removal". Cleaned salt buildup from using brand name household detergent for the last 4 months (currently in rental... Read more

Replaces broken or worn tub dampening straps that stabilize your washer's inner tub during operation. Restores proper suspension to reduce vibration.
My 9-year-old GE washer, in which I replaced the motor two years ago, developed an extremely loud roaring sound during the spin cycle. After reviewing stories here to pinpoint the problem, I replaced the tub bearing, mode shifter, and tub seal. I also installed a new tub nut, split washer, and belt. This repair involves taking the washer apart in order to get at the tub bearing and mode shifter, which are inconveniently located in the very center of the machine. I bagged labeled all the...
