Field Service Mode General Electric Hydrowave Washers - The field service mode in a GE washer

[@elsa6000]

Thank you so much for this! I was so lost when I looked at the chart but you made everything really simple and easy to understand. Because of you I was able to save hundreds on hiring someone and instead fix my own machine!

[@gregorywilson5292]

Best and most through videos I've seen on this machine. There are a lot of complaints about machine either agitating but not spinning. Please make a video about this repair.

[@oualie705]

Thank you. This helped. When I got to # 9 the water pump tried to start but would not. After removing the pump I found a sock in the water pump.

[@juliam241]

What happens if after rotating 180 degrees and releasing the start button, one of the lights are still off (Soak)? Thanks!

[@snake9206]

Apparently, positions 5 through 11 are just test modes so you can see how it operates. You can open the lid and watch if you take the magnet off the lid and just set it against the lid sensor.

[@yourtube540]

Anyway to adjust the water level on these hydrowave washers? My level seems low. Ran a service mode check and everything is functioning properly with no error codes.

[@ChadWagner-s8r]

I have a GE Hydrowave Washer wjre5550h1ww and it is showing that I have a flow meter problem according to your field service mode video. Any thoughts on this issue? I can't find it specifically while searching the internet..

[@stargilpin7856]

i can only do one third a load or it wont adgitate. got mine from a friend who said it was the springs but i dont think it is. what else can it be?

[@prockon741]

How do you run a calibration cycle on this washer? thank you

[@andymoe44nez53]

did you ever find out how?

[@Ashroyer86]

Thank you! Made it easy to understand the chart.

[@delizrobles2502]

How can I get my machine to hold more water? Please! Before it use to, but after I use it with a generator after the last storm in my country it doesn't holds enough. Thank you, GBY...

[@hectormontoya7444]

Really good video

[@papotv85]

Hi Phil, mine has all led lights on except soak and do not blink. won't start and can't get it into service mode.

[@MsCynMind]

Mine is doing the same thing. I get all lights on all mode except the SOAK. No solution as of yet since it broke down yesterday.

[@lbeau061]

Anthony Gonzalez did you ever get the answer? And was it the mother board?

[@juliam241]

Hey, I know it's been 6 years since you posted this message, but did you ever find the solution for this problem? Mine does the same thing. Thanks!

[@noeltoro6177]

I have a GTWP2250D0WW model that is not working properly. I think that it gets stuck in the rinse cycle and it doesn't proceed to the next step. What do you recommend?

[@theapplianceman]

Noel that washer is a hydrowave washer meaning that the motor itself is like a computer and I don't have anything on it Here is a link that maybe could help you kzbin.info?search_query=gtwp2250d0ww Angel

[@2001pontiacta]

What if mine passes this test but, won’t wash?

[@jinxedblackcat4609]

This was perfect

[@reactionary7184]

My GTWN4250D1WS beeps when filling even with the lid down, then won't spin or agitate. Although I would expect there to be a problem with the lid switch (which I replaced to no avail), the field service mode reveals a thermistor error code. How can that possibly be?

[@monicam5031]

Hugh Marshall I’m having the same issue with my washer. Did you figure out what was wrong with yours?

[@MJacob3]

Me too

[@dpforumdog4844]

We have a model GE WJRE5550H1WW, I don't think we have a position one. It seems we go straight from the Zero initial position with all 5 lights on to position 2 where we only have the soak light on. We never see position One with model codes lights. If we are not skipping position one then we are only seeing the soak light on in position one. But I think we are actually in position 2 when we see the soak light on which would indicate a slow pump. Also we see the rinse light on in position four which indicates the flow meter. Our symptoms are that we do not spin or agitate. The washing machine fills up and drains but never spins or agitates. We checked the belt and it seem. We check the continuity in the lid switch and it was good. We blew out the water level sensor tube even though it was very clean. Could a "slow pump" error and a "flow meter" error cause our washer not to agitate and not to spin? Thanks!

[@jrrmz4247]

I HAVE A GE HYDROWAVE WASHER MODEL WHRE550K2WW AND I CHECK ON A FIELD SERVICE MODE THE ONLY THING IS THE LEDS ON THE MODE CODE SHOWS WASH -RINSE AND SPIN AND MY WASHER SHOWS SOAK- RINSE -SPIN I DONT KNOW IS CORRECT OR HAVE SOMTHING WRONG WHITH THE CODE AND THE POSITION 7 AND 8 THE WASHER DONT AGITATE CAN YOU HELP ME WHITH THAT SR.

[@lisarainwater3582]

I have a 1 1/2 year old GE washer GTWN4250D1WS model. Open the lid and the tub is leaning to the left. If you move it, it goes right back to the leaning position which sounds like it is touching the apron. Please help me repair it. Sometimes while doing clothes water will come out from under washer. Is this because it is out of balance? Thank You for any help.

[@demon795]

Soak and wash lights are on in position 2. Any idea what that means? Is that thermistor and slow pump? The washing machine is getting stuck in the wash cycle. It will drain the tank but never advances to the rinse cycle. The pump just keeps running. Pump appears to be working well when it does pump. Model GTWN4250D1WS. I would really appreciate your help!

[@theapplianceman]

Sorry I just don't know what that means

[@demon795]

@@theapplianceman Thanks for your help! I reset the errors, tried to run a full wash cycle, and then checked the error codes again. I'm just getting thermistor error now. In field service mode I ran each check and everything functions properly. But when I try to do a complete wash, it gets to the wash cycle, completes it, tries to go to the rinse, but then jumps back to the wash cycle again. Any idea if this is consistent with a thermistor error?

[@theapplianceman]

@@demon795 I don't know much on those electronic washers and don't know the answer sorry.

[@joelcr250]

my washer doesnt have a start button, how to I enter field service mode ?

[@k.wallace5960]

I have a GE Hydrowave Washer Model GTWN4250D1WS. When it is in the spin cycle, it sounds like there is something scratching against metal underneath the tub. Any idea of what that might be and how I could fix it? I tried to email you from your homepage link, but couldn't get it to work.

[@HECKTICK007]

You may want to try looking at you clutch and actuator.

[@tcwaterdrill]

These new washing machines are just junk. My GE washer just blew a ceramic capacitor. I called GE and they said they would not sale or give the ceramic capacitor number where I could just replace it. They would sale me a whole circuit board for $142.00. The ceramic capacitor on e bay would be about 25 cents if GE would have given me it number code. Thanks GE

[@shelby50411]

Do anybody know if this model have any type of error light on the circuit board on the motor?..i need to know if my appl repair guy lyjng...he say thrre is.

[@GHOSTMoggii]

Just in case you never found out, yes there is.

[@skowhegancat7759]

When i do this, i can get into the service mode, however, the washer is stuck on drain....Which is the problem to begin with, i found my washer in the morning, going, stuck on drain. The lid 6 times method did not work. THIS is the second time this problem has occurred, somehow fooling around with the service model before, worked. If i recall actually, somehow pressing the start button and holding it, seemed to have made it work again, while playing around for hours in the service mode---But than again, that may not have been the trick that made it work again. I know, confusing to understand what i am saying. This a 3 year old GE machine

[@charlesnickell5757]

I have a GE washer model # GLWN5050M0WS. All check checks out. When I switch it to any wash position the fill light blinks nothing else happens. HELP

[@JosephStjean-xe8rq]

I have ge he model washer model number gtw460asj7ww how to put this machine in the test mode to clear error Thanks in advance

[@Johnny_Chingas13]

We bought one of these hydro wave washer/dryer sets second hand and first thing I noticed was the amount of water is definitely not the same. I let that go just because of the "less water" thing I read on about this washer but the second thing that stuck out to me was how slow the agitation is on the washer. If I have to listen to my wife complain about how crappy this washer is im gonna go crazy! Is it normal for this washer to agitate so slowly compared to a normal washer?

[@wallykatolik4034]

Yes

[@aaronsmith5433]

I cured the water level problem by spraying tire foam on the off tubing the goes from the bottom of the tub to the pressure switch behind the water level control. You could also just replace it with a better quality tubing. Sometimes soap slim gets clogged in there and you have too clean it out with a pipe cleaner. GE should be ashamed for putting out poorly designed headaches like this. I leave the front panel off permanently because I know I'll have to be in there again soon for something else. It's like it's haunted , as soon as you fix one problem another shows up.. It's also easier to get the clothes out without the front panel. You can get just a little closer when grabbing stuff out of the bottom. You can also see the water level without opening the lid.

[@gatorr4life]

@@aaronsmith5433 Thank you. Same here. Going to try this. I’ve watched many videos and low water level seems to be attributed to that pressure tube. At least in the GE washer.

[@MrDriftonin]

Last night my wife informed me ours was not spinning, the pump is draining, it is only making clicking noise within a second are two apart.

[@earlesmith7333]

What does EEPROM ERROR CODE MEAN?

[@Android_Warrior]

Internal electronic timer computer program error. usually catastrophic. replace the timer.

[@badtbssls2672]

Mine doesn’t fill correctly
