  • Video covers how to fix a newer style GE washer that is not filling with water and not starting. The washer covered in the video is GTW845CSN0WS however, this video applies to a wide range of top load GE washers manufactured in the last 10 years or so. This video is part of my series "Free On Facebook" in which I show how to repair, recycle, and repurpose things I find for free.
    Link to the alternate was to replace lid lock mechanism on GE washers is below:

      @@waynealleyne131, Thanks. I got my problem solved. I got a new washer. No more GE appliances for me. I've been told by every repair person that GE washers suck! Lesson Learned! Thanks!

    Hello, does this apply to Kenmore old washer? I just replaced the lid lock assembly and the lock seems to work.
    But I'm not able to complete a full washer cycle as it is suck in the wash stage,
    And i got an error code (diagnostic mode), that says the water won't fill. But when I run manual mode to fill the cold and hot water valve, it is filling (i just recently replaced a tankless water heater in an old home, so it's exposing that there is a minor leak in the valves where the turn knobs are ).
    Full step by step debug? Water Pressure Switch? Timer Switch?

    My washer isn't doing this exactly but it's letting me select what kind of wash I want, I can hear it start but then it beeps and stops. And will continue to blink 52 in estimated time remaining.

    Replaced the lid switch and tested the resistance on the water valves. All the valves are between 1.3 and 1.8. One valve is at 1.29. Close enough? Also checked for any possible mechanical failure and the screens were clean and no other deposits found. If those 2 parts are working, what's the next possible problem? Thx

    I cannot find a way to remove the water inlet valve to check for debris, etc due to cold water not coming into the machine. There is no part/piece to grab with needle nose pliars. Also note there wasn't a screen inside the hose attachment. How can I clean tis on my GE washer? Thanks, Claire Cothron

      Most likely it's stuck in flood mode. This happens when the pressure hose port gets clogged

    But none of the newer energy efficient washer full with water anymore. So are your referring to the machine not filling at all with water or the issue with them not fully filling due ot ths new machines? I need a trick to fix mine it's new but obviously has the same problem as all new ones where they dotn fill all the way over clothes with water.

    Does the top lift for better access to the switch?

      The alternative way to replace the lid lock by lifting the top is shown in this video of mine:

    I'm about to do my 2nd Lid Switch replacement. It kind of takes one spray of water and stop. 2nd spay and stop. When it does the 3rd time, the sensing lights illumitanes but the spraying is about 3 seconds before stopping. If its bad, it happened within a month after I replaced it for the first time

    Hi! What is the correct name for washing machines of this type? Is it a top-loading automatic washing machine or an activator-type washing machine? There are no such machines in the Russian Federation, so I cannot understand how to classify them correctly. We only sell European-type washing machines with front or top loading, but they all have a horizontal drum axis. In the washing machine that appears in your video, the drum axis is located vertically. What is the correct name for the class of such machines and how much better or worse are they than European-type washing machines in terms of washing quality, build quality, and repairability?
    Thank you in advance.

    Gone threw 2 NEW GE WASHERS WITHIN 13 months model number of current one GTE335ASN2WW. Water does not fill no matter what I put dial on and always after cycle is done have to DRAIN AND SPIN again or cloths will be to wet for dryer. First one lid lock broke no one could fix it. No idea what was going on my brain when I purchased second one. I had a cheaper ROPER for 15 years.
