Pressure sensor signal fault. Here is what it means and how to clear it, easiest fix first.

PrS
May need a pro

The pressure sensor is sending an invalid signal, so the cycle won't start or will cancel. The sensor or its wiring harness is the likely cause.

GE notes that not every code appears on every model; check your owner's manual.

Safety first: unplug the dishwasher (or switch off its breaker) before touching filters, hoses or panels. If you smell burning or gas, or see water near the outlet, stop and call a professional.

How to fix GE PrS

  1. Reset the power

    Switch off the dishwasher's circuit breaker (or unplug it) for about 30 seconds, then restore power and start a new cycle.

  2. Note the code and model number

    Write down the exact code, when in the cycle it appeared, and the model and serial numbers from the rating label (usually on the side or top edge of the door or tub). With nothing safe left to check yourself, this lets the technician bring the right part on the first visit.

Only the basic checks. You can safely try the steps above, but PrS usually points to a part or fault that needs a technician.

What if PrS keeps coming back?
