I have a Speed Queen Ultra-Mate Stackable. The wiring fried on it yesterday while cycling and it stopped running. Now the washer is locked and I cant pull it out to retrieve my laundry. Does anyone know if there a way that it can pull out manually? | ||

Speed Queen Ultra-Mate Stackable This is an electric unit. Where will the solenoid be when I remove the panel and how would I go about triggering it? | ||

Finally, a picture, I I assumed that the machine was full of water and could not be moved and it’s a large heavy machine as you know.
From the rear of the machine, take the back off, you can release the latch at the lower back. You could also do this from the front by removing the front panel not the control panel. This is why I often don’t try to help there’s just not enough information and you can’t go back-and-forth quickly to help someone solve a problem either with email or writing on a blog like this But you should be able to get it, released easily from the back .

Un locking the latch on a Speed Queen top load stack
I only ever had to do this once more than 20 years ago. It was easy to do you could either access it from the back there’s a small access near the lock at the bottom or you can just take the front off the washer and reach back and do it.
The machine that I did this on. Had a bad timer. I ordered a timer and went back and replaced it. Did you figure out what went wrong with your washer Scott to cause a problem in the first place? | ||
