Open the door, check the seal for trapped clothing, and close it firmly. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### My GE Profile says door after I ran three rinses in a row. Why? Three cycles without opening the door triggers the message. Open and close the door once and start again. ### Can a sock in the gasket cause door on a GE Profile? Yes. Anything caught at the seal can keep the door from closing fully, which is the other reason the message appears. --- **[Read on the site: GE Profile washer showing door | WasherRepair.center](https://washerrepair.center/error-codes/ge-profile-door/)** **[Book a visit with WasherRepair.center](https://washerrepair.center/schedule/)**
