How Speed Queen Dryers Are Built
Automatic Auto-Sensing cycles end based on load dryness, so very small loads should use Time Dry instead. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
Common Speed Queen Dryer Problems
- Clothes wrinkled. Speed Queen recommends a lower heat setting to avoid over-drying and smaller loads so items can tumble freely. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
- Dryer won't start. Speed Queen says to check that the plug is seated, the door is closed and the timer knob is pushed in, then check fuses or breakers and wait 10 minutes if the motor overload has tripped. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
Signs Your Speed Queen Dryer Needs a Technician
- Squealing, thumping or grinding while it runs
- Burning or hot smell during a cycle
