What does GE Appliances FTD mean?
Failed to drain. Same as C1 to C3 on newer models: the pump ran and the water stayed.
How do I enter diagnostic mode on a GE dishwasher or dryer?
GE does not publish a consumer sequence. Entry differs by model and is in the technical service manual for your model number. We do not list button sequences from forums because they are model-specific and service mode can run pumps, valves and heaters.
