Should the metal blades spin separately from the metal cap?:rolleyes: Thank you, Alan :) :confused: A new problem started where the water would not drain in between or at the end of cycles. I would need to press "cancel/drain" several times to clear the water. I thought there may have been a clog in the drain-pump but I did not find one. The pump does seem to "spin" (viewed directly)but It doe not seem to clear the water. Does the drain pump commonly go bad? Is there another valve I should be checking? Could the sensor at the bottom of the basin be the problem?

Normally it suppose to be no lower than the notch on the right side of the float cup cover. Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for GE GHDA475M15CS | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.
