GCG1700RII
GE Profile GCG1700RII Five-Bag-Compactor Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Ram stopping or reversing mid-cycle
- Drawer not opening from the pedal
- Bin release sticking
- Ram not starting
- Drawer sticking on the slide
Listed with five bags, the GCG1700RII is a built-in GE Profile compactor for a 15 in opening, with 1.4 cu ft of capacity and a 2300 lb ram. It shows automatic anti-jam, removable-key Lock/Start control, a toe or foot pedal and a bin that releases from the side or the front.
Mid-cycle stops send us to the anti-jam response, the limit switches and the drive. A drawer that sticks points to the slide, the pedal linkage or the latch. If nothing happens at all, we test the key switch, the interlock and the power supply behind the unit. A good fit in the cabinet opening matters too.
The label tells us the exact version, so we confirm the model and serial before ordering. Our price is written ahead of time, and we warrant the work for 30 days.

Why does the ram stop in the middle of a cycle?
The anti-jam feature or a limit switch may be responding to a hard load. We test both of them and the drive, and we look at how the bag was packed.
Why does the drawer stick?
A worn slide, a stiff pedal linkage or a latch are the likely causes. We inspect each one and tell you which needs replacing before we quote.
How do you confirm the exact model?
We read the label. This number is listed with five bags and anti-jam, and that helps us tell it apart from the similar numbers in the same family.
