Belle February 20, 2014 for Model Number GTWN3000M0WS My washer knob just broke. It doesn't turn on at all to start a cycle. Not sure what part I need to order.
Gary November 16, 2013 for Model Number GTWS3000MOWS The casual setting does not work, it will fill and drain but not agitate. We have to use the Darks or Whites setting. Is this a timer issue?
1 Answer Hello Gary. Yes, it sounds like the timer is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Bob September 14, 2013 for Model Number htwp1000m0ww Wash cycle works fine. Rinse fills about 5 seconds then agatates for 5 seconds runs pump along time then stops and does nothing. But if you shut it off move to spin it will pump and spin.
1 Answer Bob, Based on the description it sounds like the timer on the washer is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Tom March 12, 2013 for Model Number GTWN3000MOWS In the wash cycle everythings works good (different water levels work good also), but in the rinse cycle it only fills to about the small load level then agitates for 10 seconds and moves on. I have replaced the pressure switch and the air flow hose and it still does it. Also, the pump pumps the tub dry before it goes into the rinse mode. Could this be a timer issue? Thank you, Tom
1 Answer Tom, You will want to check for the drain pump being too far down into the drain pipe and check for a slow drain. Read More...
Tom B January 14, 2013 for Model Number GE gtwn3000m0ws we have a GE gtwn3000m0ws washer. On a small load everything comes out really wet like it is not spinning. Set it to a large load and spin and it is OK. Would this be a timer issue?
1 Answer Hello Tom, You would want to check to make sure that the pump is not clogged or obstructed to where there is a slow drain. If there is a slow drain or obstructed drain it would cause unit to not spin fast enough. This would not be a timer issue if the drain is clear but would be more of a motor type of issue not spinning at proper speed. Read More...
Sue December 14, 2012 for Model Number GTWN3000M0WS Just bought this washer which original owner said it is 2 years old. There seems to be several issues. After the wash cycle, it drains the water out but does not spin. When it fills with rinse water, it only fills for a small load even though I have it set on super load. Then it only agitates 10 seconds, then soaks. Do I need a new timer assembly???
1 Answer Sue, You probably won't need a timer WH12X10478, Your first check needs to be at the pressure switch WH12X10476 and air tube WH41X365 if theres debris in the tube or a loose connection of faulty circuit in the switch, the air doesn't move in the tube properly and can cause a "short" fill when the washer gets to the rinse cycle. Also check and make sure there are no kinks in the drain hose or debris in the drain pump WH23X10030 Read More...
Misty October 08, 2012 for Model Number GTWN3000MOWS We bought our G.E. washer 5-15-11. It will not spin at all. We have checked the timer and the lid switch and those work fine. What else should we do before we have to call a repairman? We don't have money to call a repairman so that is why we are asking you for help.
1 Answer Hi. If the pressure switch does not see the empty tub then it will not spin. Momentarily jumper # 7 red/blk wire to the # 15 DK. blu/ white wires together. If it spins now then you need the pressure switch part # WH12X10476. Unless the drain pump part # WH23X10030 is totally clear then it will not spin. Ohm the pump motor resistance is 12 ohms. Make sure the terminal block going to the lid switch is not corroded and the connections are clean and tight. You can use a magnet on top of the lid switch to see if works now. If so then change the lid switch part # WH12X10531. Lift the top and remove the lid top cover. Look in between the inner and the outer tub to see if there are any balled up clothes stopping the inner basket from turning. Use a volt/ohm meter part # MA-DM1 to assist you in your diagnostics. Remove the front panel and look at the front of the motor. On top of the motor is a inverter board built onto it. Look in from the front to the flashing green light and count the timing of the flashes. The inverter will operate the motor depending on the need. Thank You. Read More...
Brian July 14, 2012 for Model Number GTWP2000MOWW Our washing machine sometimes does not drain all of the water, sometimes does not spin, and now does not know when to stop filling. These issues have been off and on and it worked perfectly for 2 weeks until the fill issue happened last week. I was thinking the timer could be the issue. Is this the right assumption?
1 Answer Hello Brian, Check the drain pump for debris and remove the pump to tub hose from each end. Look up into the holes to insure no obstructions are present. If nothing is found, replace the drain pump. As far as the water running goes, there are only two things that will cause the unit to overfill. One is the water pressure. If the water spigot is turned almost off, it will never close the water valve because the valve is closed by water pressure only. There is no spring in the valve to assist in its' closure so a deficiency of pressure will cause this. The other thing of course is the water inlet valve WH13X23974. Read More...
Preston June 16, 2012 for Model Number glwp2000m0ww When the washer is turned on it automatically starts agitating instead of filling with water then agitating. Both water sources are on, and the screens are not clogged at all. So basically it just doesnt fill with water at all? Im mechanically inclined so I can fix it I just dont know if I would be ordering the right part or not. From what I've read it sounds like the timer, but I'm no washer repair man. So if anyone has a better idea, it would be greatly appreciated ?
1 Answer Hello Preston. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the pressure switch WH12X10476 may be bad in the unit and will need to be replaced. Test the contact points on the pressure switch and see if the YR reads closed for continuity across number 16. If so, the switch is bad and will need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.
