Speed Queen Commercial Washer won't spin
When your Speed Queen Commercial washer won't spin, start with the suspension rods, especially on a top-load model. A broken or dislodged suspension rod can leave the tub unbalanced, causing the control board to stop the spin cycle repeatedly. Replace the complete set of four rods to prevent uneven wear. Next, check the lid switch assembly, which prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. Test it for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if the circuit is open. A broken motor coupling, often caused by overloading or normal wear, can also stop the washer from spinning by disconnecting the motor from the transmission. Inspect the coupling, then check the drive belt for breaks or looseness around the pulleys. Make sure the door is fully closed and the door strike is not damaged. If these parts are working, the control board may not be sending voltage to the drive motor. Inspect it for burned components and test its output using the wiring diagram. Whether your washer is not spinning or has a complete washer no spin condition, enter your model number to find the exact replacement part for your specific Speed Queen Commercial washing machine.
01 - Speed Queen Commercial Washing Machine Suspension Rod
A top-load washer tub is usually supported by four suspension rods. If one of the suspension rods becomes dislodged or breaks, the control board may stop the spin cycle several times to try to balance the clothes. Suspension rods will often come in a set of four and it is recommended to replace all four of the rods at the same time to reduce uneven wear.

02 - Speed Queen Commercial Washing Machine Lid Switch Assembly
The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.

03 - Speed Queen Commercial Washing Machine Motor Coupling
The motor coupling connects the motor to the washing machine transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.

04 - Speed Queen Commercial Washing Machine Drive Belt
Inspect the drive belt to determine if it is broken or if it is loose on the pulleys. If the drive belt is broken or loose, replace it.

05 - Door is not fully closed
Make sure the door is closed completely and remove any obstructions preventing the door from closing. Confirm the door strike on the door is not broken. If it is broken, you will need to replace the door strike.

06 - Speed Queen Commercial Washing Machine Control Board
Since a washing machine control board provides voltage to nearly all of the washer's electrical components, a faulty board may not be sending power to the drive motor during the spin cycle. You can inspect the board for signs of burning or a shorted-out component. You can also use a multimeter to test the power output terminals on the board after reviewing the appliance's wiring diagram.
