Ha ha, I still haven't changed out my power supply. I just have to beat on the back of the unit when it screws up every couple of months. It's hard to get in and work on it on a sunny day. but I do plan on eventually changing out the power supply and cleaning all contacts and wires. I'll...

Start by checking your spot free tank level. and make sure a supply valve hasn't been accidentally turned off. If that checks out remove the discharge hose on the pump going to the manifold and turn the a bay on SFR to see if it shoots out water. If water shoots out, and still none of the bays...

If the property has only been a car wash I wouldn't worry about a phase 1 study. Car washes generally don't do anything that would be of concern. However, a lender may require it. The laser 4000 is likely worth as much as it will ever be running at your site. They are solid machines but old...

Any idea why that works or what the purpose is?

Adding an IBA with poor street visibility to a long term SS car wash is going to take a lot of work to get momentum going. Does your paystation allow any sort of free wash code? We used to sell heavily discounted coupons to the neighboring oil change. They would give a free car wash with oil...

In our area the best candidates for car wash construction are the same companies that build C-stores. They get a little IBA experience with those. You might want to check with some of them.

I have free vacs for IBA customers through tokens dispensed or the coinless app. I could envision free vacs for everyone to be a headache unless you had a huge site. I'm assuming since you on;y have two SS bays you don't have a lot of room. I have a busy 4/2 and people hanging out too long in...

Old thread, but we have other threads mainly regarding cryptopay lockups on WSIIs and the problem seems to be related to voltage sag issues, either through a weak Power supply, corroded/broken wiring, or some device inside the cabinet pulling the voltage down.

Back to the original question I'd try a pink hydrominder tip and see what happens. Viscosity of the solution is a factor and a pink tip is 248:1 but that is a liquid with the viscosity of water. in push in tips below pink they also have a "new black" and "light gray" before you're back down...

Snot can be caused by algae if the soap is more in the middle ranges of ph, Algae growth can occur between about 5-8. This is why you see these problems mainly with neutral pH foam brush products. Tire clean, foaming conditioners, presoaks, and most HP soaps likely have phs out of this range...

My guy charges $1600 for the entire site, a 4/2. It's a busy wash but I'm in a suburb and a relentless mud Nazi so I only have to pump out about every nine-twelve months, I like that. No equipment to store or maintain, no hassle, and I don't go home smelling like a pit.

If they're long expired I trash them. If they're not expired just call the local PD and they will come pick them up and attempt to contact the owner..

Can you expand on that?

Congratulations Earl!

If you are wanting the red lion display to match what your unitec charges you have to enter the correct wash prices through the red lion.

Correct. You need an overload that 16 amps falls into range. The one you have now is suitable for a 3HP motor which is also a common motor to be used for a SS bay. 5HP motors are often used for "super bays". Also wouldn't hurt to buy a "clamp around" amp meter and check running amps. I'm a...

These should work https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/shopping/catalog/motor_controls/iec_magnetic_contactors/iec_contactors/sc-e1-24vac https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/shopping/catalog/motor_controls/iec_overload_relays/thermal_overload_relays/tk-e2-1800

Is the overload tripping on the left contactor? Your overload you currently have is a little small for that motor. It should be set for about 16 amps

Are the BA50s still worth anything?

Thank you for that update Mike!
