showing PrS

The pressure sensor that tracks the water level is sending the control a reading it cannot use, so a cycle either will not start or cancels itself.

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from GE's own guidance for PrS on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Cut power at the breaker for a minute or two and restore it; GE says this sometimes clears a code.

02

Try one cycle to see whether it now runs through.

03

If PrS stays, book a visit — GE points at the harness or the sensor.

Still there?

It usually turns into controls and sensors. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

Do not keep cycling power over and over. GE calls this most likely a wiring or sensor issue, and repeated resets will not repair either.

Questions
about PrS.

Can I clear PrS myself?
Cut power at the breaker for a minute or two and restore it; GE says this sometimes clears a code. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Will cycling the power fix GE PrS?
GE says a breaker reset sometimes clears it, so try it once. Repeated resets will not repair a wiring or sensor issue.
What does GE PrS mean for my cycle?
The control is getting a signal it cannot use from the sensor that measures water level. In practice the wash refuses to begin or stops on its own.

Still showing PrS?

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