How Speed Queen Dryers Are Built
The dryer has a motor overload protector that trips on overheating and resets after the motor cools for about 10 minutes. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
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
Speed Queen Dryer Symptoms and First Checks
