Re: Brand new GE washer only 2 yrs. old stops agitating...
Probably a bad timer/module control assembly. It works for a short time then the metal contacts get hot and "open up". The timer control mod is what's behind the big knob. About $90.00.

If your washer will not agitate or spin take a look at this page GE Washer Not ... If the washer fills up with water then doesn't do anything at all and you do not hear ... if this were the problem, the water would not stop running, over-filling the tub.

I have a GE "Spacemaker Laundry" (Stackable) model number ... Today it filled withwater initially then stopped working all together when it ... Bad motor, something jammed/seized up holding the motor back from running?
Hi!!
The "Metallic banging/clicking" sound you hear is the Shifter mechanism engaging or disengaging.
The drive system will engage at the start of the Agitate Cycle and disengage when the Agitate Cycle is complete. This occurs multiple times during the wash. GE claims this is a normal sound and should not be concerned about it. Check page 10 of your Operating Manual, if you do not have a manual, click on this link to download one http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-90323.PDF
Good Luck!! A HELPFUL - 4 THUMBS - rating for this solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for using FixYa.
I solved the mystery of the non spinning washing machine by GE. I pulled the agitator off and to my horror was a broken " hub". This the part in the middle of the basket under the agitator. The transmission shaft comes up through the center of it. Any way, it was severely broken and wedged in so it would not spin. Not sure if this is the only problem but I am going to buy a new machine. I can not get it unbolted to replace the hub and don't want to **** around with it. THANKS.
To check the agitator. Start the washer into wash cycle. Once started Push down on top of agitator. If it catches some times or all of the time when pushing down, then then doggets are worn, under the agitator. You`ll have to remove the agitator to see these. If by pushing down on the agitator, nothing changes, Then you probably have a transmition problem. Check this and let me know what you find.
