Customer Questions and Answers for Switch, Pressure by Ge

Hello Anna. Blow through the pressure hose and make sure it is clear. If so, try replacing the pressure switch and see if that helps the issue with the unit.

Hello Frank. You need to check the hoses, pump, and selas under the unit. If all are good, then you need to check the flood gasket on the unit and the water valve.

Hello Ray, Blow through the pressure hose looking for clogs. If none is found, replace the pressure switch on the unit.

Hello Robeert, You need to remove the hose from the pressure switch and blow through it back to the tub to make sure it isn't clogged with lint or detergent residue. If it is clear, replace the pressure switch WH12X10378. The screws are calibrated at the factory. If the screws need adjustment, the switch is failing and will not be dependable. The possibly of overfilling into the floor will be greatly increased.

Hi. Depending on the model, remove the top or the back control panel. Remove the pressure switch hose and make sure it does not fall down into the chassis during the pressure switch part # WH12X10378 change. Unclasp the electrical connector. Unlatch the switch holder tab and turn the switch approx. 30 ° to remove it. Replace it and make sure the pressure switch holder tab is locked in place against the inner frame. After replacement fill the unit in a small wash. Advance the unit into a final spin and let it run itself out of time to "reset" the pressure switch. Thank You.

Hello Lonzo. If the only time it leaks is during the spin cycle, you will need to order and replace the flood gasket WH1X2729 in the unit.

Hello Mark, Before you replace any parts, here's a quick, easy test to try to figure out which part you will need. With the water turned on to the unit, start the machine and as it's filling, unplug the machine. If the water stops, you need the pressure switch. If the water doesn't stop, you need the water inlet valve. In either case you will need to open the control panel to access either the water inlet valve or the pressure switch. Very Important: At this point you should unplug the unit or otherwise isolate it from the power supply for your protection. Gloves are also strongly recommended as there are sharp edges exposed when the control panel is removed. To access the inside of the control panel, remove the 4 screws across the top of the control panel and flip it forward. Then slide it to one side to unhook the tabs on the bottom and lift it out.

Hello Rick. Yes, the pressure switch controls the water level of the washer. Hope this helps.
