Note: I cannot confirm this 100% as it is a GE and they like to keep all tech data a secret. I am not sure why unplugging it got it running for a week but would suspect a bad connection at the wall receptacle or the plug on the line cord. Try flipping the breaker off/on slowly a couple times, sometimes you can loose half the line without actually tripping the breaker. If this does nothing, check the voltage at the plug L1 to L2 should be 240 volts L1 to Neutral and L2 to Neutral, both should be 120 volts. If OK Unplug the unit and check the wires at the terminal strip in the machine to make sure none are loose or burned out If OK Check the power at the terminal strip. [COLOR="Red"]Be careful as 240 volts is lethal !!! [/COLOR]
