    Self serve weep issue

    Also, check your solenoid valve to make sure it is fully functioning. Sometimes they will get stuck and give low flow or no flow.

    Self serve weep issue

    Have you verified that your wand is the weeping variety? They do sell a non-weeping model.

    Thanks! It was a bad check valve under the high pressure pump.

    Self serve weep issue

    I have 3 self serve bays served by a Weep Miser weep system. I’m getting weep output in 2 bays but not in bay 3 ( the farthest bay from the weep water source). What would cause this to happen and what can I do to fix it?

    Laserwash 4000 tires spinning

    I’m also considering tack welding strips of expanded metal over the diamond plate. Is there a reason that wouldn’t work other than rust unless I use stainless? Has anyone ever tried that?

    Laserwash 4000 tires spinning

    My Lasewash 4000 is generating a speed control overload fault when the tires spin excessively and the bridge stops moving during a wash cycle. It has a PDQ Overglow system also. I’ve tried new tires and overinflating them to 36psi and that has helped. Has anyone out there experienced this...

    Laser 4000 issues

    I have a PDQ laser wash overglow problem where the foam is not coming down in a “blanket” fashion like it is supposed to and instead is breaking in different places instead of a solid “sheet” of foam coming down. Does anyone have a remedy for that? Thanks!
