Default GE Front Loading Washer - Detergent still present after cycle

Sorry for not mentioning this in the OP but I am using HE detergent. I am
using TIDE HE 2x Concentrate Liquid. I only put enough detergent in to
cover the plastic on the bottom of the detergent tray. Probably about 1/16"
deep.

Thanks.

rinses or a couple washs with no detergent to get rid of it. I am using
extremely little detergent. Much less then what is called for.


Front loader or recent top loader? You almost certainly have not been
using a
low sudsing detergent (branded these days with the "he" logo or the words
"high
efficiency"). Using less of a standard detergent is _not_ a good solution.
It
won't clear the washer (as you discovered) and it does not remove the soil
from
clothing.
