Hi-this is Sue from GE. I am happy to address the concerns with your washer. Slow fill can result when the water pressure is too low. To check your water pressure, contact your water company. Try using the washer when no other water sources in the home are being used. If the washer is in the fill mode too long, it will stop. That is most likely why the light flashes and you have to hit the start button again to start the wash. Slow fill can also result from stopped up screens in the washer water valve. To check your screens: Unplug the washer from the wall outlet. Turn off the water at inlet faucets. Pull the washer away from the wall to allow enough room to get behind. Locate the hose connections on your washer, take a pair of slip-joint pliers and turn the metal hose connections counter clockwise to remove. Allow the hoses to hang into a bucket to catch water. Inside the fitting on the washer are the screens. Clean the screens. Metal screens need to be gently pried out with a small pocket screwdriver. Plastic screens can be pulled using a pair of long nosed pliers. In some instances, you may have to replace the screens, re-attach the hoses, turn the water on and check for leaks. Plug the washer into wall outlet. Slide the washer back into place. The washer will not start to fill with lid open on Auto Load sensing settings. If the electronics need to be reset, unplug the washer, wait 2 minutes, plug back in and press START. If the above suggestions do not correct the situations, service may be required.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Did you call a technician? My washer does not have any of these problems, sounds like something is wrong.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Make sure and check water filter on hose this is a common problem and have had to clean mine a couple of times.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Don't open the lid. When the washer fills, the basket spins slowly to wet the clothes, then lets the clothes soak before it starts to wash. Leave the washer alone. If you lift the lid, it needs to reset the cycle which delays the wash cycle.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Something doesn't sound right with the washer controls
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Mine does not take long to fill, maybe a water pressure issue or a blockage in your fill hoses? Also, manual says the light will flash if the cycle is paused(press start to start, press start again to pause, light blinks, press start to resume).
