What UE tells you

The laundry inside is not balanced. GE lists the message for 2017 and newer electronic control washers.

Fixing it

  • Redistribute the load so it sits evenly in the basket.
  • Make sure the washer is level.

Messages differ by model; the Owner’s Manual shows what yours can display.

Other messages

  • dE: the lid is open.
  • Lid: three cycles were started with the lid unopened.
  • FE: water at a critical level.
