Found a service manual that is close enough to my GE dishwasher. Service Manual for GE Dishwasher-EDW4000 was found on the following webpage. http://www.applianceaid.com/pdf/serv-man-EDW4000.pdf Gives enough information to test out the dishwasher. Read it, check out Factory Test Mode. GE should have given this out as a normal User Manual. The usual user manual lack anything to help troubleshoot a problem. Read more
This is a genuine OEM replacement lower spray arm bearing sourced directly from the manufacturer for use in dishwashers. The lower spray arm spins to distribute water to the dishes during the wash cycle. Thus spray arm bearing supports the spray arm and lessens the friction, which allows it to spin more easily. If the dishes are not clean after the wash and rinse cycle, or the arm is making loud noises, the spin arm bearing may need to be replaced. This bearing is a small metal part that may wear over time. If the bearing is distorted or damaged, the arm will not sit level, and spinning may be very loud, or it may not spin. The spray arm bearing should be replaced. Turn off the breaker or disconnect the power to the dishwasher. Open the dishwasher and pull the bottom rack out. Turn the lower spray arm counterclockwise to remove it. Use a telescoping magnet to pull the bearing up from the hole in the middle. Install the new bearing and reinstall the spray arm. Put the dishrack back inside and reconnect the power.This lower spray arm bearing is a gray metal part that is sold individually. It is designed for use in dishwashers designed by General Electric and Hotpoint.

I found the schematics on your site and took my best guess at the individual components that I should replace, related to the flood switch. I guessed correctly. Read more
The video provided by Appliance Parts Pros is excellent! I followed its steps. The one problem I had was getting the ribbon to disconnect. The plastic pieces that hold it together are fragile and broke. So, instead of disconnecting the ribbon I placed a kitchen stool in front of the dishwasher door and laid the top portion on it. Then I was able to remove the handle and change out the actuator. The handle was fine and did not need replacing; a tab on the actuator had broken. (In my opinion... Read more

I used lime away, vinegar, finish washer cleaner none of them worked. Finally just use Brillo on the entire cabinet interior. It came out very clean. Only needed very light scrubbing. Then replaced the severely corroded filters Riser tube and upper jet which was not turning. After this the upper arm turned perfectly silverware and glassware and silverware came out rinse very clean. Will do preventative maintenance in the future.

Our GE was installed about 8 years ago and was AWESOME for much of its early life. However, progressively its cleaning ability diminished. By replacing all the spray arms (clogged with debris), filters, drain hose, and sump...this dishwasher cleans like it did when it was new! Cost was around $100 (also replaced a wheel and the silverware basket) and labor was relatively simple. And to think...my mother-in-law said, "Wouldn't it just be easier to buy a new one?!?".
