The technician told me the pulley was broken - and it looks damaged in the video I linked in Reply #17 of this thread. I do not know if he damaged it further when making the repair. Many of you who responded to this thread seem knowledgeable about these washers. Is there any maintenance I...

A plastic pulley doesn't seem to fit the sturdy reputation of Speed Queen. Maybe it was designed to be a "break-away" part in order to prevent a more expensive part from being damaged?

Here is a photo of the parts that were replaced in case it helps someone who might have a machine with the same symptom.

Thanks for the replies. Laundry had been placed on top of the dryer. When I picked it up, I was surprised at how warm it was. It was probably within the acceptable range of heat coming off the cabinet, whatever that is. My first post was to get an idea of what that range might be. The dryer is...

I have a 1996 Kenmore 80 Series gas dryer, model #11097588210 75882. What is a normal temperature range for the top exterior of the cabinet? Is 113°F excessively hot?

The Speed Queen authorized technician said the transmission is fine. I need a new drive pulley and helix. He said the water pump drive was somewhat worn, so he replaced the pump. He did not have the pulley, so he will be returning to complete the job. He said otherwise the machine was in great...

Do products like these offer any benefit to keeping a top load washer "clean"? The packaging shows front loaders, but the info about the products said they work on top loaders, too.

The guy in the video linked below ran into the same issue. He found a work around using pliers to prevent the transmission from rotating.

@henene4 Thanks for your ideas on this. I am thinking at $500 the washer is still worth getting repaired. And if I knew for certain what went wrong, I would do the repair myself. I did get a quote to replace the transmission from another authorized Speed Queen repair outfit. The $280 Washer...

"...when you took the front of the cabinet off, did you see any signs of water leaking from above the transmission or rusty stains inside the cabinet that might indicate a bad top bearing and bad seal?" Everything in the cabinet and bottom of the tub looked clean and dry, no signs of rust or...

@paulg - $150 labor to install the transmission in your washer was a deal compared to the $370 labor the shop quoted me. The shop said the transmission installation will require a tub seal kit, which adds $280 to the cost.

I took the cover off the washer and made a video of the source of the noise when the washer is attempting to spin.

The washer was purchased in March 2016. @repairguy was correct, this washer's transmission does have a 15 year warranty, excluding labor. The representative at Speed Queen I spoke with today about the warranty suggested I call around and get prices on having the transmission replaced. I am...

Below is a link to a video of the washer in the spin cycle. The estimate for repair was: Alliance #203768 KIT, TRANSMISSION/ LIP SEAL KIT - $699.75 Speed Queen #766P3A Washer KIT HUB & LIP SEAL - $280.00 Seal kit hub - $89.95

Thanks, I will make a video and post it. The washer was making a knocking sound before it quit spinning altogether. The pump seems fine, it pumps out water no problem. But when it tries to spin, it makes the popping sound. I do not know if the agitator works.

The cost to repair is $1070. The sound is a as @repairguy described, a loud popping sound. How can I verify if it is a seized bearing?

I have a Speed Queen top load washing machine, model # AWNE92SP113TW01, that is approximately 10 years old. When it tries to spin, the tub is stationary and the washer makes a loud clicking sound. A technician told me the transmission is leaking and needs to be replaced. He recommended getting...
