This is so helpful. Was talking to a service tech yesterday and he asked if I could do a spin only on the machine. I didn't know I could until seeing your video. Bonus that now I also know how to rinse and spin! Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time and explaining this to Speed Queen Customers. I think your the only one on You Tube who had a solution to my problem. Haven't received a phone call back yet from Allison since I made the call on Thursday evening.
Purchased a brand new AWN63RSN116TW01 (TR5003WN is the "product code" for this model) . . . . and it failed almost immediately out of the box. On mine - the door close switch is a very very critical adjustment. Literally - the door close switch "closes" in just the last millimeter or two of the door being closed. You can hear a distinct "click" when the switch closes - unplug the machine if you do this - the "click " is purely mechanical - NOT the sound of relays activating in the powered on state. If you DONT hear that click - the switch is not in the "closed" state and nothing will happen. IF the switch somehow transitions to an open state during the wash cycle - the thing will stop completely and flashing lights - I've been unable to figure out how to advance the thing WITHOUT closing that switch which required me to pull the front cover, lift the top cover and then "close" the switch by hand. I've done this a couple of times in the few weeks that we've had the washer. Yes - I DID reach out to SQ - multiple times I have completed the customer service form on their web site - included the model and serial number of my machine and inquiring as to how I go about obtaining warranty service. NOBODY HAS ANSWERED ANY OF MY REQUESTS - EVER. It's a sad state of affairs. The lid close and latch logic is waaaaaaay over-engineered with NO thought whatsoever given to the scenario of a possible fault. There needs to be a way to do a re-boot,., e.g., drain and spin the thing and release the door lock - to get to a troubleshooting state (clue for factory engineering: It's tough to slide the washer out to work on it when it's full of water!!!!) Mechanically - this is a nice machine. The soft/firmware design was done by someone who has never used AND SERVICED a machine in a practical setting. "Hidden" functionality(ies) where you turn a knob and hold a button (some call these "easter egg" functionality) are terrible. All functions need to be user accessible from the front panel . . .. . just add another switch or two - so you can label the function!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing this information. I had a Maytag washing machine from 1977 that worked very well. Unfortunately my 1977 Maytag dryer went out and I decided to replace both appliances at the same time. I have been frustrated with the washer because the manual doesn't show how to do a rinse/spin or spin only cycle. Thank you again for sharing.
Is it possible to just spin without adding any water at all? After the load my uniforms (because if the fabric material, not a problem with machine), are still wet and would only want an additional spin to get the water out. Thanks. Oh, I have the tc5 though.
This is really pathetic that you can't make this machine rinse and spin. Back in the day you had a dial WASH and it would wash, spin, rinse and spin. SPIN and it would spin. RINSE and it would rinse and spin. All for about 200 bucks. I paid almost a thousand dollars for this machine and it can't perform the simplest of actions. Fill with water, agitate and spin out. That's what we used to call the RINSE cycle. And you could make your washer do it, at will. I WANT MY OLD WASHER BACK!
I agree. Why are they making them more complicated. Nobody I know has this much time to stand around and fiddle with a bunch of 10-15 second repeated button holdings. At this point I would be satisfied with my moms old wringer washer! Frustrating!
singsong cindy I agree .. I just got my speed queen the other day I like it but seriously I want my old machine I had 28 yrs ago I had 2 other machines that didn’t last long and all digital 😏🤦🏻♀️
@@singsongcindy8865 TOTALLY AGREE... the gov't water restricting liberals need to stay out of our FREEDOM-LOVING American lives! What's next?... are they going to tell us exactly how much water we can use to brush our teeth, shower with? LOL
ok I have this exact machine! I hate it...now it fills to the top even if you set it on low setting. You can never check it unless you hit the cancel button. I just happened to do this to soak something and I noticed I had it on medium and it was filled to the large load. What's wrong with it? How did you open it when it's moving mine won't let me do that!
I think they've found a way to thwart this on the TR5. Very sad. My machine insists on running through entire cycles. Oh for the days when we could spin the knob and the machine would do what we wanted it to do.
Thank you for this video. I thought my new machine was damaged but it just had too much water left in the tub after the rinse cycle. I would get an error snd try to start all over not knowing how to skip right to spin. I was getting an unbalanced load error.
Did you ever figure it out? I'm currently elbow deep in my washer trying to figure if it was the pump or what. Always leave about an inch of water in the end of washing clothes and throws a code
Amazing how much Speed Queen does not tell you about their stupid machines. We have an issue where the machine stops after wash, then all 4 lights flash. We try unplugging it and waiting, but unfortunately, we can't fix this condition unless we remove all clothes from the washer wet, then leave unplugged for 30 minutes, then run the cycle empty. We are trying to get warranty service, but nobody really wants to fix this. I do not like Speed Queen's customer service. We believe something is wrong, but frankly, even though the washer is less than 3 years old, we are likely going to recycle it and bite the bullet and buy a new one due to its unserviceability.
I cannot get mine off mine is on spin Medlock I can’t get it off of there I followed the instructions I went to a normal echo I went back to any cycle but it will not leave the spin or lid lock and it will put no water and I can’t get the lead unlocked what do I do
I came here to listen to hear if the tR series was just as loud at the DRAIN/Spin mode as my tC5 is. It appears to be the case. The PUMP is likely the same one. Powerful but drones on a bit. Luckily that mode is only ~3 minutes. The rest of the time I don't find my TC5 too loud at all- and it cleans far better than any tR SQ machine.
Cool though! 😃 So, for this Washer, when holding the Start/Pause Button for more than 3 seconds to force into a Cycle, Normal Eco = Rinse & Spin, while Heavy Duty/Delicate/Permanent Press = Drain & Spin.
Just to make sure I'm not missing anything- when you do this extra rinse/spin on Normal Eco, the tub still doesn't fill all the way, correct? It just sprays some water and spins?
Hi, Great video! I have this model from 2019. But this is not working, likely because my lid lock assembly has fallen into the cavity below, just outside the drum. I can see it with a flashlight, not far down but can't get it. It broke away from the mount when I forced the lid open after what I thought was a normal load. It had never spun and was full of water. So I think it won't spin because it thinks the lid is open. Any suggestions??
I can’t get mine off the hole where keeps blinking once I get it off of there all the lights in the right hand side wash the rinse in the spin come on bay blink on but they don’t stay on it doesn’t lock in and I don’t get anywhere well also I doing wrong under TR 3000
I know this is 7 months late but you have to unplug wait a few minutes and replug, im sure either got rid of it or figure that out by now. I am currently in the same predicament as I just bought this washer yesterday, wash and spin blinking, I unplugged after the beep and am now able to do the forced spin, is there any way around you you have found in the last few months?
Did u get urs fixed? I lookd up in my manual. Says if blinks twice, inlet hoses are clogged. Sure enuf, my cold hose had debris ( i have well water) unplugged. Poured white vinegar in hose & hookd up. Pour vinegar in washer & ran. No more blinkn lites. Good luck!
I have this exact same washer and I hate it! I bought this last June 2020 after reading many good reviews about Speed Queen washers. I guess I missed the reviews about this model the tr3000. It doesn't get my clothes clean, these are clothes that got clean in my previous washer. It also doesn't take anything for it to become unbalanced and it is a bother to go through all the steps to get the machine to stop even then after redistributing the clothes it still doesn't work so I end up having to put it on a cycle that uses very little water. The lid lock feature is a big bother also. I am having a bad case of buyer's remorse because I paid a lot of money for this machine
Same here. Paid a $1000 for it and it can't wash a regular load without going unbalanced and not spinning high speed and leaving about and inch of water in the bottom. Super pissed
Yes, sadly I am unhappy with the TC500 top load washer that I bought in Oct of 2021... the only real benefit is that it DOES fill with lots of water which is the main reason I bought it (because their front-loader that I really wanted only fills with a few gallons of water because of the ridiculous gov't water restrictions/regulations which can NOT wash clothes properly)... gov't needs to keep their business out of our lives once again. The TC500 is too limited... like it doesn't allow the options for longer washing and rinsing cycles, the rinsing cycle needs to spray more water onto the clothes from a few different directions allowing better rinsing overall because my clothes right now come out with all kinds of lint & dirt STILL on them with this TC500 sadly. In an ideal world, I could go back to when they WERE making front loaders that worked & lasted a long time AND used more water to clean the clothes... they/gov't screwed with an already successful system... and now we the masses suffer, once again.
You need to change the title to this video. That’s not a rinse and spin. I just did a load using powder detergent and wanted to be able to use rinse and spin it again and found this video only to be let down. 🙄
Sorry, I was playing around, it was the drain hose, draining back into the tub. I should have made that clear, I just realized the hose is not visible in the video.
@@kirkrivas8172 Can you pls tell me: I have been trying to find out if, on the TC5000, there is a way to skip the rinse cycle so that I can use another wash cycle in place of the rinse cycle in order to have a warm water rinse. I emailed SpeedQueen and asked if I could cancel the cycle as soon as the initial spin is over and then start a new wash cycle. I was told that I could not do that because "there is a chance of hindering the computer and where it is at." Are there any buttons I can press to allow me to at least avoid having to go thru a cold water rinse before starting a new wash cycle? Thanks!
I put a large blanket in the washer and now the wash and spin lights are flashing and it will not do anything. I pulled the blanket out and there is a couple of inches of water that will not spin/drain out. I cannot get it to do shit. I wish these companies would stop making their machines in other countries. Sadly, plastic and electronic parts hence, unreliability is the result.
Just got my TR3 today, it works great on "autofill extra rinse", but on "large" it will fill, wash, and drain MOST of the water, and stall out, wash and spin lights blink 4 times, pause, 4 times for ever! I have to unplug, and switch back to autofill extra rinse to get the load washed, 40 min. Its BRAND NEW, it should work on ALL settings! This pause trick of holding down button and changing to perm press to get the spin to happen, does not work on my machine. Its a lemon
@@DylBuilder1 after 3 weeks of very little water to wash all my dogs wee wee pads and NOT coming clean, I put the SQ out on the patio and went back to the great agitating Hot Point where I can decide how much water I want.
