If you have a GE front load washer that isn't draining, then chances are it won't spin at all, either. I want to help you today to test a few parts of the washing machine, and also learn how to replace the drain pump as well on this new-style frontload washer that has a unique way of opening up.

I made this video a few years back, and a LOT of people are seeing bad drain pumps on these. GE is running out often, but you can buy them from our online store: bens-appliances.com/products/wh11x29539-ge-washing-machine-drain-pump-wh11x29539cm Inverter Board: bens-appliances.com/products/wh22x35837-ge-washing-machine-inverter-board?_pos=2&_sid=8c2977563&_ss=r

Just wanted to take a minute and say thank you for the excellent videos! I bought a used GFW550SPN0DG washer/dryer set recently and the washer was not working. 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.

If you have access to flipping the machine on it's back in a basement or garage, but if it's on a pedestal in a small laundry room, that's definitely not easier. Besides the Phillips screws go in from the top.

Great video. Thanks for the help with learning how to access the pump. Fortunately for me on the GFW550 model, the pump itself was not hard to remove and reinstall. Most of all, I got lucky and my pump was not burned out. I found that the pump had a large clump of lint and hair inside, so I detached pump motor from the pump housing in order to clean it out and now it works great.

I had the same model today and wasn't draining. I blew on the drain hose and the drain pump worked. I did this twice more and it made it work. When I didn't do it I would hear it energize but no water drained. Of course I made sure the filter was cleaned first. It's either a weak pump or some kind of back pressure not allowing the water to flow

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.

My GE GFWR4805F2RR front loader easily gets unbalanced and won't spin. I've followed all of the steps in this helpful video which did make the incident occur less often. Since thenI take the clothes out and reposition them, which seems to work half the time. Other times I moderately shake the barrel inside, that the clothes are in, front to back and that allows for the spin afterwards. A little lost for ideas at this point

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

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.

I need info and video please on how to change the control board. Broke w/ 13 minutes left in cycle. Machine won’t drain, showing many codes, that often change w/ trouble shooting. Checked drain filter and was completely clean, so we thought possibly drain pump, changed it and still doing same thing. Reading other comments, leaning towards control board change but GE says the part is $418, and that doesn’t include labor if we can’t do it ourselves. Looks like we’re going to have no choice but to buy a new machine. We’re already in $125 for a service call.

Please sir I need your help I have the same washer and it makes a crazy sound when spinning I got a ge tech to come out and he said the sound is normal didn’t want to fix it plus every time I try a spin only cycle I keep going back to 13 min I might go to 10 or maybe 9 but then it jumps back to 13 . Tech said it’s normal gotta wait I’m like sir it’s not normal acted like I never used it or something. Really didn’t appreciate the tech service but I’m still under warranty and that’s who they sent

One major thing not covered here...if the drain fails and the washer is full of water, the washer door becomes locked and will not unlock. Even after you've drained most the water out. You just get shut out. The washer will also not perform any functions. The lights are on, but nobody is home.

I'd physically remove and check the pump impeller. If the magnets are shattered, it can hum and sound like it works, but won't run

I thought this was a "DIRECT DRIVE" machine. "7:30" LG uses a similar 10 year sticker. I feel tricked by marketing. You should do a "Lorain Furniture and Appliances" style breakdown of the machine video giving your opinion of its construction, serviceability, possible reliability issues, and wash performance. You could also compare this machine to other machines you have used and or repaired.

@Loonabestkpopgroup nope the motherboard was bad and it was going to be to much to repair so I bought another brand washer it sucks because I had the matching washer and dryer and they were only like 15 months old. I will never buy another GE. Good luck hopefully that's not your case and you can get it resolved.
