GE Dishwasher Repair – North Canton, OH (GSD2100V55BB)

A GE dishwasher in North Canton, OH was stuck running for hours on the same cycle with water that wouldn’t drain out. Our diagnosis revealed a failed timer that had also burnt out the drain solenoid, leaving the unit full of stagnant water.

The Problem

The customer reported that the timer doesn’t move, it will just run for hours on the same cycle. And the water doesn’t rinse out. So the dishwasher is full of water.

Diagnosis

The timer had failed and burnt out the drain solenoid. The unit was pretty smelly from having the water in it, indicating the problem had persisted for some time.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WD21X10474 — timer, WD21X10060 — dishwasher drain solenoid
• Work performed: Replaced both failed components
• Result: After replacing both parts the dishwasher is operating correctly. Ran a clean cycle with Affresh dishwasher cleaner to address the odor.

Is It Worth Repairing?

This GE model is a solid mid-range dishwasher that typically provides reliable service when properly maintained. Timer and solenoid failures are repairable issues that can extend the unit’s life significantly. Given the straightforward nature of these repairs and GE’s parts availability, this was a worthwhile fix.
