What Makes GE Dryer Repairs Different

GE Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
- Dryer takes too long to dry. GE points first to venting (metal duct, no kinks, clear wall cap) and a clean lint filter, then to load size, dryer level and washer spin speed. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Taking Too Long To Dry Clothes or Not Drying at All
- Check Vent alert. GE says to unplug the dryer, disconnect and vacuum the duct, and make sure the outside hood damper moves freely. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Check Vent Sensor Alert
Reading a GE Dryer Error Code

|---|---|
| Check and Clean Drain Pump Filter (UltraFast Combo) | A restriction, often a loose item, was detected in the drain area and the pump filter should be cleaned. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Fault & Error Codes and Status Messages |
| 18 (UltraFast Combo) | The drain pump filter needs cleaning; loads may also come out wet or take longer to dry, and the drain hose should not be pushed too far into the standpipe. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Fault & Error Codes and Status Messages |
| 353 (UltraFast Combo) | The lint filter is likely clogged, often with fabric softener residue; cleaning the filter clears it. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Fault & Error Codes and Status Messages |
