However, sometimes, they also malfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One common issue reported by the GE dishwasher owners that their dishwasher is not spraying water on the dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, there is a straightforward fix that should resolve 90% or so of GE dishwasher that stops spraying water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easilyfixit.com\/ge-dishwasher-lights-flashing-but-wont-start\/\">GE Dishwasher won&#8217;t Start (Solved)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GE_dishwasher_not_spraying_water\"><\/span>GE dishwasher not spraying water<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>When your GE dishwasher stops spraying water on the dishes, you need to reset it. First, unplug your dishwasher from the power outlet and wait for 5 minutes. While the dishwasher is unplugged, press and hold the start button for 1 minute to drain the residual power. After complete 5 minutes, plug your GE dishwasher back in.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If resetting your GE dishwasher does not resolve the issue, try the additional fixes detailed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Remove_some_Dishes\"><\/span>Remove some Dishes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you put excessive dishes in your dishwasher, it won\u2019t operate. The reason is that each dishwasher has a maximum capacity beyond which it cannot clean the dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, adding too many dishes can block the water sprayer from reaching other dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I never recommend fully loading your dishwasher and leaving a quarter of room for better cleaning and optimal performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_Water_Supply\"><\/span>Check Water Supply<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If removing some dishes from your GE dishwashers does not do the trick, then the next thing you should check is whether the water supply to the dishwasher is turned on or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, ensure that the inlet water pressure is within the dishwasher range. If it is too low, your GE dishwasher won\u2019t operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clean_the_Dishwasher_Spray_Arm\"><\/span>Clean the Dishwasher Spray Arm<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As its name suggests, the spray arms on the GE dishwasher are responsible for circulating and spraying the water on the dishes. They have small holes which does the spraying function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspect the spray arm holes and see if they are clogged or not. You can clean them with a toothpick or small needle if they are clogged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your GE dishwasher is not spraying water, don\u2019t panic, and try the following troubleshooting methods to fix it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Remove some dishes <\/li><li>Check water supply <\/li><li>Clean the spray arm<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you still have issues with your GE dishwasher, contact <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geappliances.com\/ge\/service-and-support\/dishwashers.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GE dishwasher support<\/a> or call them at <strong>+1-877-959-8688<\/strong>.
