GE Washer Error Code: E70
Your GE washer is a workhorse, tirelessly handling the dirty laundry. But occasionally, even the most reliable appliances can throw a curveball in the form of error codes. If you’ve encountered the E70 error code on your GE washer, don’t panic. We’re here to help you understand and resolve this issue.
The E70 error code is an indicator of a specific problem in your washer. It typically points to an issue related to the control board. When the control board detects an anomaly, such as a malfunction or a communication breakdown, it triggers the E70 error code.
- Unplug the Washer: The first step in addressing the E70 error is to unplug the washer from the power source. Leave it unplugged for at least 3 minutes. This action serves to reset the control board.
- Plug the Washer Back In: After the 3-minute reset, plug the washer back into the power source. Power it on and observe if the error code returns. In some cases, a simple power cycle can resolve the issue.
- Replacing the Control Panel: If the E70 error code persists after the reset, it’s likely that the control panel is the culprit. The control panel is responsible for receiving and transmitting commands to the washer’s components. If it’s malfunctioning or experiencing a communication breakdown, replacement may be necessary.
