How to Turn Off Delay on Ge Dishwasher

What does 1h mean on a GE dishwasher? 1h shows up and the dishwasher will not start up. Is this an error code? The "Ih" is really a "1h". This means that you have a one hour delay start set on your GE dishwasher. You can start your GE dishwasher, wait 1 hour, and it will start the cycle after 1 hour. To cancel it out, press the START button until it cancels out the DELAY START. You can then use the dishwasher normally.

The code on the GE Dishwasher may look like a 1H, ih, IH, 1h, or an error code. However this is actually the number "1" with an "H" next to it. This code is officially 1h. 1h means a delayed start of the wash cycle for 1 hour.

In detail, this means that your dishwasher is programmed to delay the start function for 1 hour. To clear this and reset the control board, press the START button and clear the delay start program. If pressing the start button does not work, just wait 1 hour to see if it starts and resets the delay start function. Your dishwasher may be stuck on delay. If so, troubleshoot the control board for faults.
