Dadoes,

This would be good news. How did you come to learn of this? Can anyone else confirm? Yes it is a top loader.

indexing

the drum only turns when the washer is new. after the brakes wear in it stops. I have a 2012 model. it took mine about a month to stop. trust us, this is normal

 

[bladeandstone]

Thank you both. I spoke with alliance tech support and they confirmed. Appreciated!

Mine didn't index alot from the beginning but stopped completely around 7 months into owning it.

Bought my Speed Queen last August the drum still moves maybe an inch back and forth but it makes a thump thump thump sound doing it...should I be concerned?

No, that's the sound of the tub moving back and forth as the brakes hold the tub during agitation. This sound is normal.

Does anyone have an awne9 with pictures of the control board and the main board? Or a service manual for the 9 series. I have an 8 series, but was looking to wire mine as a 9 series for the longer wash times. When I bought my 8 series back in Feb, they didn't have anymore 9 series left. However, I noticed that my control board is a 9 series, just with the 8 series sticker. I'm thinking the main board is a 9 series with just a different wiring configuration as well.

Here are pictures of my AWNE8 control board and main board to compare.

Update:

I wasn't able to find a service manual, but I did find a parts list! The output board and wire harnesses were all the same. The only thing different was the control board. I found a new 9 series control board on eBay and installed it. It worked! Having 3 kids, the soak feature and longer wash times come in handy. I used to have to pause my 8 series to soak and after it filled, reset it to get longer wash times. This makes it much easier on me. Anyway, I just wanted to throw this update out there for anyone that bought a 2017 Speed Queen in 2018, but wanted a 9 series and couldn't find one.

Over 3.5 years has passed since I got the washer and now the time has come for a new dryer. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get the matching dryer last year before they sold out, so now I have to settle for the DR7 with the new console design. I was deciding between the DR7 or the commercial style Maytag which was $150 cheaper, neither were my first choice as the one I wanted (29” WP) can only vent out the rear and I need it to vent bottom center through the floor, which the 27” WP design Maytag, and the SQ can do.

I’ll probably make a separate thread for it after it comes next Friday if anyone shows interest.
