    Laserwind dryer not coming on

    It`s late Sunday evening and I`ve just recently found out my Laserwind dryer is not coming on. I did a quick check to see if any breakers were tripped and I didn`t find anything. When I test it the nozzels will move but the dryer doesn`t start. Also the relays in the electrical panel on the...

    vandels make my life even harder today

    Are these Dixmor timers? If so you can buy just the red case from Kleenrite. Be sure to get the protective piece of plexiglass. Even if they identify the kids, restitution could take a while.

    So who gets a clean dry shiny car with an Inverted L auto??

    For starters you need to reveal what part of the country you are in. There are a lot of good cleaning products out there and a whole lot of opinions here on the forum. One thing I might add is I like my presoak heated.

    replaced tubing now its leaking

    Remove the tube and cut about a half inch off and then reinsert it. Sometimes the tube will tend to get out of shape where the collet is holding it in. It may not look like it to the naked eye. Push in real hard then try to pull it out. It it if caught properly, you can`t.

    Bent tubing

    Bent tubing

    I changed over from the 1/2 hose to 1/4 on the chemical side of the hydrominder a long time ago. You can get the smaller tips and the piece they fit into into from any of the car wash suppliers. Works much better. I would never change back to 1/2 inch.

    If you are picking up air it will pulsate also. Tighten all the lines that lead to the pump, soap, wax, inlet water.

    upgrade 20 amp breaker to 25 on 12 gauge wire

    I`m not an electrician either but what`s wrong with this. Replace the breaker with a 20 amp double pole. Keep the wire but go to each light and rewire the ballast to the 220 side. Assuming they are multi-tap ballast.
