New 2016 2017 GE Washer GTW220ACK1WW Wash Rinse Spin Action and Sounds
This video shows the new GE washer gtw220ack1ww wash action and spin cycle sounds and actions. Keep in mind this machine has a locking lid so the actual tub can't be seen while in wash.

Do you know where the softeners go?
Thanks for the video! First time using it! No problems at all 😀 This video is fully helpful.
i cant put mine on soak sycle. how do i do that. i left my clothes soaking and when i came back the water was gone
I really don’t like how slow it washes after using the old versions for so many years it’s getting me a lot to use to it.
I watched a lot of video reviews on newer washing machines made by different manufacturers and most all had some kind of loud noise. I saw one video where a commercial Maytag washer sounded about as loud as my GE washer which I found odd considering that it was a commercial made machine.
Yes just installed mine and was testing it when I started freaking out!! 🤙🏽
Where can we find a manual so we know to fix issues and use the fabric softener and there is no rinse button by itself
the softener when ?????

Watching this in 2021 because I couldn't figure out where to put fabric softener. So what I did was press the deep rinse button after it stops from the wash cycle the lid lock button comes off then you can add softener so I guess I'm investing in a downey ball. 🙄🤷♀️

Removing the lid lock allows it to fill but not agitate or spin. I noticed that when the lid lock it plugged in, touching it will shock you. Do you think replacing the lid lock would fix this problem or is the problem with the control board?

Hi, Can you do a load of laundry on the normal cycle again, but this time with the lid open you can bypass the lid switch. Please?
@johnstrom2721
2 жыл бұрын
I'm sure there's a way to bypass the lid switch, but it isn't a typical switch compared to most top load washers. The switch doesn't just go downward, but it also 'folds' inward and has a 'split' design. Sticking a screwdriver into the slot won't work on this model.

You can disable the lid switch You can remove 2 screws and then place the switch in the lower slot to have the machine run . You can lift the lid and watch agitation at your peril. You have to put the square lid latch in and out to change settings or start .Dont lose the latch . I use white duct tape and some slack to pop it in or out without losing it in wash

Mine is about 1/4 full of water and the be door lock just clicks on and off, no matter what I they to do to reset it. I just now started looking for answers. I've tried to unplug it, and open the lid 6 times to do this reset I keep hearing about, but it changes nothing. I emptied the water out and it's still doing the same thing. This has happened before and I've had the water screen in the back clogged up a little and it's simply not putting enough water in it to wash clothes without bunching them up only half way wet with no water in the tub, at all say I've been using a water hose to fill it up half way with water and that seemed to work, them a relative came over and washed a big load and then the next time I went in to wash clothes I run into this again. I did notice that the door lock was wet, but it's late so I'm going to let it dry and try to get it going tomorrow. Do you know anything that I can try with your experience with the same Washer, almost as I got? Thanks
