Three short steps, about a minute.

or call (844) 398-5711

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for Cycle Canceled Draining on its washers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Leave the unit plugged in and wait 4 minutes.

02

Start the cycle again.

03

If the message appears on cycles that were never paused, book a visit.

Cleared?

No part had to be replaced. If a later load stops with water left in the drum or the cycle halts again, treat it as a new problem.

What not to do

It is not something to clear by unplugging. That only restarts the 4-minute timer.

What you may
notice with it.

The washer problems Cycle Canceled Draining tends to arrive with. Answer these at the washer before anyone is booked.

All problems

No repair indicated

Nothing to repair.

Something the washer does by design, or a setting somebody turned on — a child lock, a prompt to run a cleaning cycle, a paused cycle waiting for the door. No part has failed and nothing needs replacing.

In GE Profile's own words

If the Combo was paused for longer than 24 hours, or if the machine has stopped itself before the cycle was complete, the message that draining was canceled may show.

Questions
about Cycle Canceled Draining.

Can I clear Cycle Canceled Draining myself?
Leave the unit plugged in and wait 4 minutes.
Why does my GE Profile say Cycle Canceled Draining after a weekend away?
A load left paused for more than a day is canceled automatically. Wait four minutes and run it again.
Should I worry if my GE Profile keeps showing Cycle Canceled Draining?
Once after a long pause is normal. If it repeats on cycles you did not pause, the unit may be stopping itself, which is worth a visit.

Still showing Cycle Canceled Draining?

Book with the code as it appears, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
