# Speed Queen E SudS: too much foam left after spin

E SudS is a message about the wash, not the machine.

## What E SudS actually means.

E SudS is a message about the wash, not the machine. During the spin steps the control looks for suds; when foam is still there after all of its suds routines, it shows E SudS once the door is opened at the end, for a minute or until a key is pressed.

What to do when E SudS shows on the commercial appliance

### Kind of code Mode, not a failure

Nothing on the unit has broken; the controller is reporting a state it chose or one somebody set. A defrost pauses cooling for a scheduled melt and shows a warmer air reading for a while, a combi asks for a delime or runs its clean cycle and locks the door until it ends, a dish machine or a laundry machine sits in energy save between busy periods, and a door-open reminder beeps after a long delivery. No part is needed: letting the cycle finish, or the key sequence in the manual, brings the unit back.

### Usually leads to No repair

Look at the detergent customers are using and post a sign asking for HE detergent in small amounts.

### Shows up as Commercial Appliance Error Code on a Combi, Fryer, Dish Machine or Laundry Display

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

### Make Speed Queen

A Speed Queen machine in a laundromat or apartment laundry room is often booked for a weekday morning, when the fewest customers are waiting.

### Source Speed Queen commercial front-load vended models, control manual 807870ENR5 (Alliance Laundry Systems)

Speed Queen commercial front-load vended and card models listed in manual 807870ENR5, such as SFNNCASP116TW01 and STGNXASP116TW01.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Speed Queen's own guidance for E SudS on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Look at the detergent customers are using and post a sign asking for HE detergent in small amounts.

02

Run an empty rinse cycle to flush foam out of the tub.

03

If E SudS appears with normal detergent use, book a visit to have the drain and level sensor checked.

### Cleared?

The code is gone from the controller, the box pulls down to its set point and holds it, the vat or the cavity reaches temperature and recovers on schedule, the rinse hits its heat and the drum finishes its spin, all without a new part. If the same code comes back within a week, or during the next busy shift, mention it when you book.

### What not to do

E SudS does not stop the cycle or lock the machine. Foam on the floor is a separate matter and points to heavy overdosing or a seal leak.

## What you may notice with it.

The commercial appliance problem E SudS tends to arrive with. Answer these at the commercial appliance before anyone is booked.

## Questions about E SudS.

### Can I clear E SudS myself?

Look at the detergent customers are using and post a sign asking for HE detergent in small amounts.

### Why do my laundromat's Speed Queens show E SudS on weekends?

Busy days bring more customers who bring their own detergent, and a heavy pour of regular soap foams far more than HE detergent.

### Does E SudS on a Speed Queen mean the clothes were not rinsed?

The control extended its routines to fight the foam, but a very sudsy load can still feel soapy. Offer a rinse if a customer complains.

### Do I need to reset a Speed Queen after E SudS?

No. It clears after a minute or with any key press, and the next cycle starts normally.
