    Default Another GE Profile drain issue


    I have a Profile Triton Model # GSD5360F00SS that will not drain. I have read the previous post concerning probable causes. My unit has 1 1/2" - 2" of water remaining in the DW following a cycle. I watched as it drained into the sink but not all water was removed (Sunday) on Monday I could not get the dw to drain at all. The solenoid appears does engage but no water is pumped from the dw. I "jumped" the drain boost pump and the system works as advertised. When i run the rinse only cycle with a meter on the leads to the boost pump it only gets power for about 2 seconds(very end of cycle) then power is removed. Is this a control panel issue or timer issue????

    This is what I have done so far:
    1. removed and cleaned all screens
    2. replaced the plunger (not visibly damaged but I observed it allowing some back flow)
    3. inspected the flapper
    4. checked for clogged lines
    Any help is appreciated

    Its most likely the sequencing switch.

    Here is the one for your model:

    Default Not the sequence switch...

    I replaced the sequence switch and still no luck. I have tried both Pots/Pans and the normal cycle and each ended with water in the bottom of the DW. Any thoughts??????

    Sorry for the delay, its been very busy.

    Very strange, I have replaced a few sequence switches and it fixed it.

    You may have a pump/motor problem then, you may want to contact GE to come out and look at it to make sure.
