This GE washer sometimes 'whistles' after a while during the spin cycle. Any ideas?
For model number GTW685BPL0DG
PartSelect logo
Hi Mark, Thank you for your question. If your washer is making a whistling noise during the spin cycle, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the clutch, the drive belt, the pulleys, the rod and spring assemblies, the drain pump and the transmission assembly. You will find the information on how to test these parts under Free Repair Help and Instant Repairman on our website. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!

washer powers off during spin/drain cycle
For model number GTW685BPL0DG
PartSelect logo
Hi Mario, thank you for contacting us. A clogged or broken drain pump can prevent the machine from spinning or draining properly, which can lead to the machine shutting down. The drain pump assembly for your model is part number PS12723115. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Would not drain the water from the tub.
Very simple to repair. Be sure to drain the tub outside or into the sump pump then lay the washer on its side. The pump is right there on the bottom of the basket with 3 bolts. You will also need to remove the belt cover to get to the plug. So simple and saves you hundreds off repair man prices.

Water was dripping into the detergent tray when the unit was off.
Removed the control panel back plate cover. Removed the 3 screws that held the water control valve in place. I then unplugged each solenoid one at a time and plugged it into the new control valve. Once all wires were transferred, I pulled the old valve up and put the new valve on. Then reinstalled the screws that held it down and reinstalled the cover plate. Very simple job !
