Resetting a General Electric Washing Machine

General Electric washing machines sometimes become unresponsive due to a power failure or an unexpected pause in the wash cycle. The machine may also stop working normally if the cycle is left paused for a prolonged period. Resetting your washing machine restores the controls and allows you to remove your clothes if the door lock is jammed shut. In most cases, this is the only action necessary to fix the washing machine. Does this Spark an idea?
