(Plus Fixes)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

If your GE dishwasher refuses to start, displaying only blinking lights or beeping sounds it can be due to Control Lock, door latch, pump, or power supply issues. Deactivating specific modes, adjusting the door, lubricating seals, and troubleshooting power or water problems will fix this issue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll tell you everything you need to know to tackle this situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So without any further ado let\u2019s get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is Your GE Dishwasher Not Starting?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Before we delve further, note that these reasons and steps apply when the dishwasher has power but appears unresponsive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your GE dishwasher has no power<\/strong>, that\u2019s for an entirely different set of reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that out of the way, let\u2019s go in-depth with the reasons for your dishwasher not starting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 1: Control Lock, Delay Start, or Demo Mode Active<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dishwashers today have extra features like Control Lock or Delay Start for convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 If these are on, the dishwasher won\u2019t start until those conditions are met or the features are turned off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 2: Unsecured Door Latch or Faulty Door Switch<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The door latch needs to close properly for the dishwasher to start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it’s not closing right, it could be due to manufacturing defects, wear and tear, or something blocking it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the door switch makes sure the door is closed before the dishwasher starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it’s not working, it might be due to wear and tear, electrical issues, or problems with the sensors that detect if the door is shut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 3: Pump Seals Dry and Stuck<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When dishwashers sit unused for a while, the seals in the pump can dry up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This makes the pump motor make humming sounds but not start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the dishwasher doesn\u2019t begin its cycle either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 4: Flood Float Jammed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The flood float prevents flooding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it’s stuck due to something in the way or water pressure issues, the dishwasher won’t start to avoid potential flooding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 5: Activated Leak Detection<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If the dishwasher thinks there’s a leak, it won\u2019t start wash cycles to prevent a mess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 6: Sleep or Sabbath Mode Enabled<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

GE Dishwashers have energy-saving modes that might make them inactive or follow certain rules during specific times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this case, the Sabbath Mode exists for the religious holiday \u201cThe Sabbath\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This being on can cause the control display and control sounds to not respond, making the dishwasher seem non-responsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 7: Power Issues<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If there’s something wrong with your power supply like sudden changes in voltage or electrical issues your dishwasher will refuse to start as a safety measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 8: Blown Thermal Fuses<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Thermal fuses monitor heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it gets too high often, due to issues like overheating elements or faulty components the thermal fuse blows, cutting the power, and preventing the washer from starting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 9: Water Supply Problems<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For your dishwasher to work, it needs a steady flow of water at the right pressure and quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If anything messes with this like a clog, your dishwasher won\u2019t start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 10: Incorrect Cycle Settings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you pick a wash cycle, it’s not just about time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dishwasher needs to match water temperature, detergent amount, and spray arm movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, these settings might glitch out, causing the washer to not start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 11: Touchpad or Control Panel Malfunction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Your dishwasher\u2019s controls might be unresponsive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the buttons or screen on your dishwasher aren’t working right, it might be a wiring or internal issue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 12: Timer Component Failure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Your dishwasher has a timer that tells it when to send off power to certain components and at what times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this timer messes up, it can throw off the whole sequence of events. That means the dishwasher gets confused and fails to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason 13: Main Control Board Dysfunction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The main control board coordinates all activities of your dishwasher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it’s not working right the dishwasher won\u2019t start, as the control board affects how the dishwasher’s different parts communicate and work together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Fix A GE Dishwasher That Won’t Start?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now, here\u2019s a guide on how to take care of all these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        Solution 6: Dealing With Power Issues<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                        You\u2019re better off letting an electrician handle this one. Something might be wrong with the electrical outlet itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        If you still want to try some DIY stuff, here are my suggestions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          \n
                        1. Disconnect the dishwasher.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        2. Measure the voltage at the dishwasher’s power supply to ensure it matches the recommended range.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        3. Check the power cord for damage; replace if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        4. Inspect the junction box for loose connections or damage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                        5. Tighten connections, repair wires, and ensure proper grounding.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
