My washing machine seems to have stopped before the rinse cycle and it hasn't emptied the bottom of the drum. I've tried starting it in different cycles and it won't turn on in any other cycle except Spin, and when that goes on it makes a noise but doesn't turn, I guess because it cannot when its full.

Any ideas on what I can do to get it drained and hopefully back up and running? The unit is 4 years old and is a GE

My dishwasher is not draining empty
