This is a very informative video, but I'd you are watching it like I was a few weeks ago, get ready for a potentially longer process. I have a simmer 2022 washer and the drain was clogged. The drain motor was not functioning. Pulled thr moter as show in video and tested its resistance, bad drain motor, replaced the drain motor, reassembled, ran service test, still not functioning. After researching more, replaced mainboard. During main board replacement found out the original main board model had been replaced with a new design model! Reassembled using new model main board, and after more research to find the personality profile of my exact model, finally was able to enact service code 12, drain pump worked. In conclusion, the clogged drain did start the problem but I believe GE realized the that if the drain pump failure would cause a main board failure, the main board design was changed. The combination of this video and the diagnostic video were great. I hope they would make a video going through all the steps I had to go through on my 2022 GE washer.

This video was before the main board issues popped up. I'm trying to buy another one of these to show the mainboard failure + inverter motor failure, as thats another very common issue on these. Sadly, when I made this video, the problem you face popped up like... 3-6mo afterwards, and I didn't have this machine by the time the issue started happening.

No tumble or spin, but drain worked fine. Your videos were a tremendous help! They helped me determine how to get into the system, and using the error code video I narrowed the problem to the inverter/motor. Using this video I got it out and inspected the inverter to find some blown components due to the recent floods of IAN. Have a new one on the way! Thanks again!

You DO NOT have to remove the front of this machine to access/remove/replace the pump! It’s easily accessible from the bottom of the machine. Two screws remove it and there’s plenty of space to pull it out. Also 9 times out of ten they pump is fine just jammed with debris keeping the pump from turning. Have dealt with this twice. Three screws hold the pump together, open up the pump and almost a guarantee there’s something stuck in the pump that made it past the filter. It’s a 15-20 min free fix.

Its possible that the board has gone bad as well. I literally have a video coming out next week about this issue. I bought a used/broken one of these JUST to film more issues that crop up on these since I made this video exactly 2 years ago. Often what happens is the pump goes bad -> blows board up -> needs both replaced. You can confirm this by checking for 120 VAC at the maroon harness on the control board. If you don't get 120 VAC between brown and black wires on pin 2/3, then the board isn't sending the proper drainage voltage to the motor because part of it has blown up

Hi there, My GE front loader does drain in all modes but won't spin. What could be the cause?

Same here!!! I bought mine brand new March 2021 and this just happened to me.. I don’t know what to do! It rinses but doesn’t spin once it’s time and there’s a sound like humming sound at first

Thanks for the in depth video, but my problem is that it drains but DOESN'T spin, and I found this title a little misleading.

It's for issues that cause it not to drain then spin. I have a video dedicated just to no spin issues as well on my channel

Hi. I have a GE washer GFW550SPN0DG that doesn't want to wash nor spin. When I press start it only spins like for 5 seconds and stops. It does the same when I try the spin only cycle. I ohmed the motor from pin to pin and it reads 3.5 ohms, seems to be within specs. I also ohmed the hall sensor that is attached to the motor and on the same connector (pins 4&5) and that reads 119 ohms. I also checked the voltage to the motor when the drum spins for 5 seconds and it showed 124v. What could be the issue, motor or inverter? I would really appreciate any help with this. Thanks in advance.

Did you fix your problem? What was the problem?

@@tupapidan90 never fixed it. I replaced the motor inverter board, main board, motor and hall sensor on top of the tub (one part at the time) and it never worked. I have to mention that replacement parts were used from eBay. Supposedly they were good working parts.

Every time I think I want to get a front load washer I research how to fix common problems. This machine looked like a great purchase but no thank you, that’s just too much work for me. I’ll stick to my top load washer that uses more water to wash.

I replaced my pump cause I didn’t have debris. Put the new one in and it still does nothing. Very frustrated right now

I checked everything accessed from the bottom and replaced the pump and it still didnt work. To make a long story short, it ended up being the motherboard that went bad.

How did u know it was the motherboard? I just did the same replacement but it's still not working..
