    Crypto pay vacuum issue

    I installed some used Swiper's on my vacuums. They are crypto pay. I thought everything was working great until I noticed one of the vacuums seem to be running on a little long. Here's what it's doing. When you swipe the card the Swiper flash is steady blue and you have to press the button to...

    Vacuums: cc swiper location

    i'm installing credit card Swiper's on my IVS vacuums. They are the old-school ones with no display. I'm leaning towards putting the box for the Swipers on the right hand side of the coin box area. What are your thoughts on this? Do you have pictures you could share of your vacuums with a Swiper...

    More customer insanity

    I was in the detail shop today when I saw a red Kia soul pull up. I have a friend with the identical car so I was looking forward to a nice friendly chat. Instead, a woman walked in and explained that my car wash damaged her car. My automatic is a three-year-old razor. I said OK and walked out...

    The high-pressure pump and motor sound like they're bogging down at certain points along the car wash travel as it washes the car. I can't really tell from my cameras what position the wash is at when you can audibly notice a slowing of the motor and pump as the high-pressure function is on. It...

    OK to disconnect Goldline printer?

    I found someone who wants to buy my thermal printer out of my gold line. I thought that would be fine because I don't use it anymore now that I have crypto pay. Is it OK to just disconnect this and remove it from the machine or will it create some type of error that will cause me a problem? It...

    well, my height restriction for my automatic wash didn't exactly work last night when a customer with a big huge rack on his Silverado smashed through it. He pretty much demolished the height restriction which will have to be totally rebuilt, including angle iron, bracing, pressure treated...
