Thank you. I wish I had access to this video some 30 years ago. The “grease motor” actuator valve head of the 571’s AND the end switch had me completely lost when I was an apprentice electrician. Now I occasionally wire these for existing customers. Unless there is a home automation or other control system at the premises, I just use the Taco zone valve relay control unit. It’s a standalone device with 6 (or 4 or 8 - different models) zones. Extra internal 24vac/40va transformers and a ton of features. Run 2 cond from the boiler TT connection in the controller. Run a 3 cond from each valve to the assigned zone on the controller. And.. Run your individual thermostats to the assigned zone terminals. (R + W + Common). When a T stat calls for heat, the appropriate zone valve is actuated. There are LEDs on the front panel indicating the status of each device and system. Only $200-300 and it makes the installation easy for you, the homeowner AND the next service tech on site.
Can I use this drain if my sink doesn't have an overflow?
Hello Marie, yes you can. No problem. Happy New Year!!
If after replacing this and the relay held at first making the pump run then after 5 minutes it turned off, no power was being sent thru again what should i look at
Hello Abbie, It might satisfied the set temperature. Make sure is calling for heat. Make sure all connections are tight. Did you take a picture of the wiring before removing the wires? make sure the connections are where they supposed to be. Check 24 volts on the transformer. Look for any loose or broken wires. Make sure the zone valve is closing and sending power to the relay. Good luck!! Let me know what you find out. Happy New Year. !
Thanks for the great video! I have a similar speed queen and Just wanted to add my experience that may help others, that although you mentioned you rarely, if ever, replace the flame sensor it was actually the part that failed on my unit. My symptoms were that the igniter would light up at start up as it should but the flame would not ignite for 2 or 3 minutes, sometimes longer. If the door was opened during the cycle, the flame may not come on again although the igniter would still be glowing. When the flame did ignite it would stay lit the whole cycle until near the end of the timed dry. The flame sensor had continuity on multimeter (although had a rattle inside when I removed it that the new sensor did not have), but still was working incorrectly intermittently. I initially thought it was the coils, but replacement coils had same effect. Dryer now flames up at about 15 seconds after start up with the new flame sensor and dryer now working as it should.
Wow!! Thank you so much for your sharing your experience!!! As you mentioned it. In 18 years dealing with this Speed Queen dryers, I have never ever replaced one. Happy new Year!!!
Anyone know the canister replacement for this model? Mine snapped at the bottom when turning.

As Alex mentioned, the Caleffi PRV has a set screw to adjust water pressure from 0 to max, but he didn’t mention there’s also a dial with psi marking. So at 15, the dial shows 15 or if you want to have it 13, turn to set screw to the 12 marking on the dial. This Caleffi model also has the psi gauge after the pressure reduction stage to show psi within the system, to confirm system pressure matching the set screw selection.
Hey Tony, Thank you so much for your input. Happy New Year!!

Thanks for the video man! I ordered the part and fortunately it was an already configured board. I dont have to mess with the diagram and the little switched. Seems to have fixed my issue. Time will tell. Half the problem is knowing how to take the thing apart. I appreciate the tutorial. It was a huge help.

Hola Lucas, cuéntame!!!!
Thanks Alex good job
Thank you so much!! Please know that I have 30+ speed queen videos!! Happy New Year!!!
Do you prefer the Kohler or Korky replacement seal more?
By rule of thumb I always prefer original genuine parts. (Im not saying the fakes are bad, but some times they are). If you get my drift.......?
Tired of the horrible leaky flush valves? Look at the Korky 5030 flush valve kit.
Thank you so much for your input. Please give us the link. Happy New Year!!
Needed a video showing a front-facing display. I was stuck on the step on how to access the UI Control Board after taking the door apart. I didn't want to break anything at that point. Your video helped me complete this process. Thank you so much! Happy New Year!
Hey Susan!!! Thank you so much !!! I wish you only the best for 2025. Please dont forget to like the video.
Do the right thing - replace the entire flush valve with a Korky 5030. Amazing upgrade to the OEM garbage.
Amazing just bought a champion 4 today, and will install it myself for the first tie
Nice!!! How did it go? thank you!!1
Thank you
My pleasure!!!!
Many thanks. Once I realized it wasn't a power issue, I was about to look for a new microwave and not even have someone fix it. Then, your video miraculously showed up and I did what you showed and it absolutely is a dead fuse. I really appreciate this, you save me a lot of time and money!!
Im so glad to hear that!!! The best for you in 2025
Thanks about to try this today!
Good luck ! let me know how it goes.
You’ll be lucky if that toilet lasts 10-20 years.

What's up Eric. Im glad it worked. Thanks
5:25 " AWESOME TOOL" that leaves marks on the doors.
Yes it does. Dont tightened to hard do it doesn't leave those marks. Thanks for your comment !!
Your detailed explanation on how to install the belt was fantastic! The way you walked through each step made it straightforward, but the real standout was the illustration you included. That drawing took the guesswork out of the process and made everything crystal clear. It’s rare to find instructions so well thought out and easy to follow. Thanks again for putting in the effort to make it not just informative but practical and visually helpful.

When I twist it doesn’t lock and goes up intermittently with canister
Hey Joe, before you lock it in, make sure you aligned it well . Then twist. It might be broken already and not holding on.
You said "put it in, so it's in the hole". Lol
Thank you!
I saw you used a pressure elbow, that should be a drainage elbow. It is also not a good idea to sandwich plastic between cast iorn so I would have used no hub cast iron.
Hello Jack. Yes I did. If I would have used The DWV elbow, it would have push me an In to the right and the 4 in pipe would have lined up with the cast iron. The 4x4x2 T has the sweep on the 2 in side, so that gave me peace. Thank you so much for your input.
@ a street vent elbow would have worked, I wouldent worry about it but these are things to consider when doing something like this again.
Was the first fitting domething special?
Hello Paul, If you are referring to minute 1:50 That special fitting will shut of the flow if the valve senses grater pressure of gas needed. Also there is a thermal ring inside the valve that shuts it off if the valve reaches 400 F or more.
Screwed up design. Tgey will scratch the adjacent cabinets
Followed your instructions, and worked perfectly! Thank you for your guide! Took only bout an hour but saved me a fortune for a new dishwasher! Didn't even need any power tools, just a Phillips head screw driver and a long 1/4 nut driver!
Thank you so much!!! You are so kind.
Excellent, straight to the point. This helped me a lot. Thank you!
Can I just turn off the main breaker? None of mine are marked in my box
Hello Ivy. Yes it will be fine. Thanks so much for your comment!!

that was awesome so happy i found this video. That multimeter is out of stock on amazon any other suggestion?
Hello That volt meter is my second or third choice. I prefer UIE , fluke, or Klein. If you are a tradesman spend at least 100 on it. I like the clamp feature so I can read amps on wires with that clamp. Also choose one that has all the gadgets geared to your trade. ei: hvac
