How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before accessing the rear or bottom.

  • Inspect belt: Remove the rear panel and verify the belt is intact and on both pulleys. Replace the GE drive belt if broken or loose.
  • Check motor connections: Ensure the motor plug is secure and wiring is undamaged.
  • Test motor/control: Use service mode motor tests and a multimeter to diagnose. Replace the GE drive motor or GE motor control board as indicated.
