Speed Queen Commercial Dryer light is out
If your dryer interior light is out, start with the most likely trouble and work down the list. The top culprit is a bad light socket: use a multimeter to see if voltage reaches the socket, and if power is present but the bulb still won’t light the socket itself is likely defective. Next are control components that house indicator lights; on many Speed Queen commercial models the control panel, touchpad/control panel assembly, or the user control and display board include the light circuitry and must be replaced as a unit when an indicator or display light fails. Less commonly the door switch can prevent voltage from reaching the lamp, so test the switch for continuity when the door is opened. The actual light assembly is a less likely failure but still possible if you see burn marks or physical damage. If you need the right replacement part for your exact dryer, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find parts that fit.
01 - Speed Queen Commercial Dryer Light Socket
If the light itself is newly installed or shows no signs of damage, yet still won't work, it's possible the light socket is defective. You can use a multimeter to test whether or not voltage is reaching the light socket. If the meter shows that power is reaching the light socket then it's likely the socket is malfunctioning and will need to be replaced.

05 - Speed Queen Commercial Dryer Door Switch
The dryer door switch will turn the interior light off when the door is closed and turn it back on when the door is opened. If the switch is defective, it may be unable to allow voltage to reach the light. You can use a multimeter to test the door switch for appropriate electrical continuity when actuated. If the switch doesn't provide appropriate continuity, it will need to be replaced.
