GE appliances we repair in Chicago

GE has been manufacturing home appliances for over a century and remains one of the most trusted brands in American homes. At IVAN Appliance Repairs, we service all GE models — including GE Profile and GE Cafe — across Chicago, Oak Park, Evanston, Elmwood Park, Niles, Park Ridge, and Des Plaines. GE parts are widely available and repairs are typically completed in a single visit.

GE Refrigerator Repair

GE refrigerators — French door, side-by-side, and top-freezer models — are among the most reliable refrigerators on the market. When problems develop, they most commonly involve the ice maker, defrost system, or water inlet valve. Our refrigerator repair technicians diagnose and fix:

GE refrigerator not cooling or not reaching set temperature
GE Profile and GE Cafe ice maker not working or not making ice after reset
Frozen fill tube blocking water flow to ice maker
Water inlet valve failure — ice maker or dispenser not working
Defrost system failure — frost buildup on evaporator coils
Water dispenser not working or dispensing slowly
Refrigerator running constantly but not cold enough
Error codes: CC, CF, CI, PO, 88

GE Washer Repair

GE top-load and front-load washers are found throughout Chicago and suburban homes. Their reliable motors and simple control systems make them straightforward to diagnose — but control boards, lid switches, and drain pumps do fail over time. Our washer repair technicians fix:

GE washer not spinning, draining, or starting
Error codes: E2, E3, E57, HC, LD, LO FL
Lid switch or door latch failure — washer won’t start
Washer leaking from tub seal or bottom of machine
Drum not turning or making grinding noise during spin
GE washer filling but not agitating
Control board unresponsive or error code stuck on display

GE Dryer Repair

GE dryers are reliable but share the same sensitivity to vent restrictions as most modern dryers. A blocked exhaust duct is the most common cause of slow drying and thermal fuse failure. Our dryer repair technicians service:

GE dryer not heating or taking too long to dry clothes
Thermal fuse blown — full duct cleaning and fuse replacement
Dryer not starting or drum not turning
Error codes: E1, E2, E3, dE, PF
Drum making squeaking or grinding noise — bearing or felt seal
Moisture sensor coated or failed — dryer stopping too early
Gas dryer igniter or valve failure — no heat on gas models

GE Dishwasher Repair

GE dishwashers — including GE Profile models with the third rack and bottle jets — are common throughout Chicago kitchens. We handle all dishwasher repair issues including:

GE dishwasher not cleaning top or bottom rack properly
Dishwasher not draining or leaving standing water after cycle
Error codes: F97, F99, C4, PF, LE
Door latch broken or dishwasher not starting
Dishwasher leaking from door or bottom of unit
Control panel unresponsive or display showing error
GE Profile bottle jets or third rack not spraying correctly

GE Oven and Range Repair

GE ranges, wall ovens, and cooktops — including GE Profile induction and GE Cafe dual-fuel models — are popular in Oak Park and Evanston kitchens. Our oven and range repair technicians fix:

GE oven not heating or not reaching set temperature
Oven temperature sensor failure — F3 error code
Gas burners not igniting or clicking constantly after ignition
Electric burner or bake element not heating
Error codes: F1, F2, F3, F7, F97
Self-cleaning cycle locked — oven door won’t open after clean cycle
GE Profile induction cooktop not detecting cookware
Control board failure or touchpad not responding

Common GE error codes — what they mean

GE appliances display error codes to identify specific faults early. Here are the most common codes we diagnose on Chicago area service calls:

F3 — Oven temperature sensor failure. The sensor needs to be tested and replaced. The oven will not heat accurately until this is done.
F97 — Dishwasher drain pump fault. Check and clear the filter first. If standing water remains, the drain pump or drain hose needs inspection.
E57 — Washer motor control board fault. Do not continue running the machine — call a technician.
LD — Washer long drain error. The drain pump is taking too long to empty the tub. Check for a blocked filter or kinked drain hose. If the code returns, the pump needs to be replaced.
CC / CI — Refrigerator ice maker communication error. The ice maker control board has lost communication. Reset first — if the code returns, the ice maker assembly needs to be replaced.
PF — Power failure code on dryer or dishwasher. Usually clears after a reset. If it reappears without a power outage, the control board needs to be inspected.

If any GE error code returns after a reset, the underlying component needs to be diagnosed and replaced. A reset clears the display — it does not fix the part.

Frequently asked questions — GE appliance repair in Chicago

How much does GE appliance repair cost in Chicago?

Most GE appliance repairs in the Chicago area range from $150 to $400 depending on the appliance and the part required. We provide a clear written estimate before any work begins — no hidden fees, no surprises.

Do you repair GE Profile and GE Cafe appliances?

Yes. GE Profile and GE Cafe appliances use the same core components as standard GE models but with upgraded finishes and features. Our technicians are familiar with the specific control boards, dual inlet valves, and convection systems used across the Profile and Cafe lines and service them regularly across Chicago and the suburbs.

My GE refrigerator ice maker stopped working after reset — can you fix it?

The most common causes are a frozen fill tube, a failed water inlet valve, or a failed ice maker module. If the ice maker is completely silent after a reset, or produces one cycle then stops, the module or inlet valve has likely failed. See our full guide on GE refrigerator ice maker repair for details. We carry GE inlet valves and modules on every service vehicle and complete most ice maker repairs in a single visit.

What does the F97 error code mean on my GE dishwasher?

F97 on a GE dishwasher means the drain pump is not working or the drain path is blocked. Check the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher tub and clear any food debris. If standing water remains after cleaning the filter, the drain pump or drain hose needs to be inspected by a technician.

Do you offer same-day GE appliance repair in Oak Park?

Yes. We offer same-day service in Oak Park, Evanston, Elmwood Park, Niles, Park Ridge, Des Plaines, and most Chicago neighborhoods. Call (630) 214-1998 or book online and we will confirm your appointment quickly.

Is it worth repairing an older GE appliance?

GE appliances are built to last and most are worth repairing if they are under 10 years old and the repair cost is less than 50% of the replacement value. GE parts are widely available, which keeps repair costs reasonable. Our technicians give honest advice and will always tell you when replacement makes more financial sense than repair.

What does F3 mean on my GE oven?

F3 on a GE oven or range means the oven temperature sensor has failed or is reading outside its normal range. The oven will not heat correctly until the sensor is replaced. This is one of the most common GE range repairs we handle and is completed same day in most cases.

Do you service GE Profile and GE Cafe appliances?

Yes. We service the full GE lineup including GE Profile refrigerators, dishwashers and ranges, GE Cafe appliances, GE top-load and front-load washers, GE dryers, and all current GE wall oven models. Our technicians are experienced with GE-specific components including dual inlet valves, Profile ice maker assemblies, and Cafe induction cooktops.
