The washer stop and blinks in the RINSE MODE
I called a repair person to check my 15 months old GE front loader washer that stopped in rinse mode. After his inspection he said it was a deffected computer board and it would be very expensive to replace the 3 computers boards inside and it would be cheaper to buy a new top loader washer. The next day I lifted the top cover and found a taped plastic envelope with instructions titled “For service Technicians Only." On page 2, instruction on to how to enter the washer in to service mode and to test the washer:
Press : Signal, Delay, Signal, Delay (within 30 seconds of plug in washer)
Then rotate main knob to #102 and press Start:(the washer did a test for finding the problem) , and for me was : E22 , it means : replace solenoid valve assembly.
So I order the part from Partselect.com for $58.00 and my Washer runs beautiful, thanks to the instructions inside.

Shock absorber sheared off from drum out of balance
2 things to note if you’re going to replace this part. First, you definitely need the 6” crescent wrench as noted in the instructions. Second, tape up the flanges of the machine so you don’t cut your arms to pieces on sharp metal edges.

You shut the door washer would beep twice, and start button would flash.
First I locked out the power cord. I pulled the back screws to the top panel off, slid the top panel to the back of the washer, and pulled the top off. opened the washer door, and ran my down where the door switch was. with one hand on the switch, I use the other hand with a philips screw driver to remove the screws on the door switch. Pulled the switch up just enough to remove the electrical plug. Now installation will be the same but start backwards. Plug in the switch, run the switch into the housing. While holding the switch in place with one hand use the other hand to install the two screws. Replace the top panel, remove any lockouts.

Water leaking
Did not have to use the new pump filter. The old one finally worked. I probably didn’t screw it in tight enough.

Broken hinge
Unplug the machine. Remove the door by taking out the 4 screws holding the hinge cover. Then remove the three screws that attach the hinge to the door. You may need to remove the hinge pin (mine fell off as the top of the hinge was broken) Set aside the door. Remove the spring clamp that holds the rubber boot to the washer front. Use needle nose pliers to pull the spring away from the boot and use a screw driver to ply it away from the boot around the ring. Gently lift away the left side of the boot to reach the hinge. Remove the four screws that hold the hinge to the washer frame. Reach in and remove the broken hinge.
Insert the new hinge and replace the 4 screws. Replace the rubber boot over the lip of the washer frame. Replace the spring clamp around the rubber boot being careful that the boot seats evenly all the way around the washer door opening. This was the hardest part! Reattach the door. to the hinge and replace the hinge plate over the hinge.
