# How to Remove GE Profile Washer Panels
GE Profile washing machines consist of panels that make up the cabinet holding the mechanical and electronic parts of the appliance. If the machine needs internal repairs, or you simply need to unclog the drain pump, the front or top panel must be removed to gain access. Opening the appliance for maintenance or repairs takes less than 15 minutes using basic tools. The panels have sharp edges on the insides, so work carefully to avoid cuts.
