GE Appliances GTW465ASNWW fill light blinking
The Fill status light flashes (2 or 3 blinks on some models), the drain pump runs and the controls stop responding. The washer stopped the cycle and started a 4-minute control lock-out while it pumps out water. GE gives three triggers: a long pause or water left with the lid open, no water reaching the tub during fill, or a fault that stopped the cycle.
Cause 1 of 3Water was left in the washer for 15 minutes with the lid open (3 blinks), or the washer stayed paused for more than 24 hours. Source: Consumer Help Indicator, p. 13
First checkWait until the pump stops, about 4 minutes. Unplugging the washer restarts the 4-minute timer.

Other GTW465ASNWW indicators
- Lid Locked light flashing: Three cycles were started in a row without the lid being opened. The washer will not start another cycle until the lid is opened.
- Spin light blinking: The washer detected an out-of-balance load and is trying to rebalance it. It may not reach full spin speed, so the load can come out wetter than normal.
