The Dryer Cylinder Belt is an OEM replacement part for Speed Queen dryers. It is a critical component that transmits the rotational force from the drive motor to the dryer drum, enabling it to spin during the drying cycle. This drum belt is approximately 99" long. This drum belt is flat and has 5 ribs and 4 grooves.

Symptoms of a faulty dryer cylinder belt include:

• The dryer drum not rotating or rotating intermittently
• Squeaking or grinding noises during operation
• Visible wear, cracks, or fraying on the belt

Causes of a bad cylinder belt can include normal wear and tear over time, exposure to high temperatures, misalignment or improper tracking, or physical damage from foreign objects or debris.

This OEM Speed Queen part helps maintain optimal washing performance on standard, heavy-duty, and commercial machines.

The Thermostat is an OEM part for SpeedQueen dryers. The thermostat monitors and regulates the temperature inside the dryer drum during operation. It is responsible for sensing the dryer heat and activating the heating element at the selected temperature setting.

Causes of a bad thermostat can include overheating over time, fluctuations in electrical current that may damage components, or impact damage.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• The dryer not heating up or heating unevenly
• Constantly shutting off due to overheating errors
• Inability to select desired temperature settings
• Premature ending of dry cycles

The Heater Assembly is an OEM replacement part for Speed Queen dryers. This component generates the heat necessary to dry clothes effectively, working in conjunction with the blower to distribute warm air evenly throughout the drum. It is essential for proper drying performance and efficiency.

Causes of a bad heater assembly include electrical failure, damage to the heating element, or issues such as lint buildup leading to overheating. Prolonged use and normal wear can also lead to the element burning out.

Symptoms of a bad heater assembly include:

• Dryer not producing heat
• Clothes taking longer than usual to dry
• Dryer shutting off unexpectedly due to overheating
• Error codes related to heating issues

This OEM part ensures compatibility and performance in Speed Queen dryers.

The Knob Assembly is an OEM component specifically designed for Speed Queen dryers. This assembly includes the control knob and integrated electronic components that allow for cycle and setting selection.

• Keeps the drive belt properly tensioned for reliable operation
• Low-friction bearing supports smooth, quiet belt tracking
• Helps prevent belt slippage and premature belt wear
• Addresses symptoms such as squealing/chirping, burning rubber odor, belt coming off or fraying, or a drum/tub that won't spin or starts then stops

• Idler wheel with installed bearing

• Disconnect power; shut off gas supply before servicing
• Access the belt path and tensioner; relieve belt tension to remove the old idler
• Install the new wheel/bearing assembly and ensure free rotation
• Route the belt per the model's diagram, rotate by hand to check tracking, then reassemble and test

The Idler Lever Assembly with Bearing and Wheel is an OEM replacement part for Speed Queen dryers. This assembly maintains tension on the dryer belt, ensuring it rotates the drum effectively during operation. It includes the idler lever, bearings, and wheel, which work together to support smooth and efficient drum movement.

Over time, the idler assembly can wear out due to friction, heavy use, or lack of lubrication. Bearings may seize, or the wheel can become damaged, leading to reduced tension and compromised dryer performance.

Symptoms of a bad idler lever assembly include:

• Squeaking or grinding noises during operation
• Drum not turning or turning inconsistently
• Dryer belt slipping or breaking prematurely
• Increased drying times or inefficient operation

This OEM Speed Queen part is designed to restore reliable performance in compatible dryer models.

This is a control knob for washing machines. This control knob is used to adjust the water temperature and level settings on the unit. It is manufactured out of a white plastic. The replacement is very easy and takes less than 15 minutes to complete. All that this process involves is pulling the old knob off and sliding the new knob on.A new control knob will be needed if the original is cracked, broken, or damaged in any way. Over time, the white plastic may begin to yellow, and the user may wish to replace the control knob for cosmetic purposes. If the knob is not actuating the desired cycle, it will need to be replaced.This control knob is a genuine SpeedQueen part and is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. This specific control knob is compatible with washing machines that are manufactured by the SpeedQueen brand.

Considered a crucial part of the dryer, the blower fan assembly is the part that pulls in air from outside and then circulates that air in the drum to ensure clothing gets dry. After the air is moved around the drum, it is then moved through the exhaust vent. This part is located on the motor shaft and is made of durable plastic. Regular use can lead to wear and tear or damage to this component. If this occurs, the air in the dryer may not dry the clothing. In this case, the blower fan assembly will need to be replaced.If the blower fan assembly needs to be replaced, first the dryer should be unplugged from power. Take the cabinet top off and remove the front panel on the appliance. Take out the drum, remove the motor clamp, and loosen the blower fan so it can be removed. Take it out and replace it with the new blower fan assembly.The blower fan assembly is designed to be used with dryers manufactured by Amana and Speed Queen. It is sold as an individual part. This is an authentic OEM replacement part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer.
