No, I haven’t but I replaced it just a month or two ago. Although, that doesn’t mean it isn’t stuck open. I’ll check that. Thanks.

Yes, new injectors and solenoid valves on both step two and wax. Very puzzling! About the only thing left is changing the check valves on the manifold above the boom, but I don’t really believe that is the problem. Specially since I swapped hoses from the step one hose to wax hose and it didn’t...

I’ve got an older wash world high velocity, same as laser 4000. My step one soap sprays very smooth out of the tips. But my step two and wax doesn’t. It spits and sputters some and doesn’t have a smooth spray. My pump is at 150 psi and I think my air is at 60 psi. Can’t figure out why I get a...

50/50 is about what I run in it. It’s always worked for me!

Yep, just got my Weep system installed today. When I rebuilt my wash back in May, I didn’t install the weep system. Didn’t figure I needed it back then. I just installed all new parts for it. Check valves, tubing, N.O. solenoid from the weep-miser, etc. It’s that time! It was also 37 here this...

Oh, so sad to hear this. I haven’t been on the forum in a few weeks. He was a wealth of knowledge. And only 58. I’m two years older than that. Makes you really stop and think! Most people don’t realize what it takes, the constant grind of keeping a Carwash going 24 hours a day seven days a week...

No I haven’t tried them. Are they 12V DC?

Well, as cheap as the horns are, I don’t mind if I have to change one every once in a while. You could change one out in five minutes! The horn works OK in the coin box unless they’re using the high pressure spray, that’s where I got the complaints that you couldn’t hear it! And it was true...

I haven’t been on the forum in a while. Life gets in the way. A lot of things going on, stressful things. Anyhow, an update on my beeper problem. I added another beeper in the meter box and tried two together. That didn’t work! In fact, with two, it changed the tone of them and actually made...

That’s the one I’m using.

Yeah, you’re right. Probably wouldn’t of done that anyway. I will probably try adding another one. That should work. Unless you think two of them will draw too much current.

Yeah, that’s an idea. One on the opposite side of the box. That would probably be the easiest route. That should make it louder!

To be honest with you, I’ve never put a pencil to it yet. I was fortunate enough that I didn’t have to take out a loan to do it. But I also did all the work myself. If you hire it done, you’re going to have to figure that into it also. You probably just need to start talking to car wash...

Well, I don’t think that’s the problem. I’m getting 11.9 V from the horn outputs. Even on “constant tone I still can’t hear it with the high pressure spray on. But I can hear it OK with the door open! I’m either going to have to get a louder horn or move my existing horn out of the meter box. I...

Scammer. That’s why he wanted to see copies of merchant statements. Probably trying to get information from them.

Yeah, I had thought of that. If the voltage is a little low, it could cause the beeper not to be quite as loud. I can set it on constant and check the voltage.

Here’s my set up. I washed my pickup this morning, and with high pressure spray, I couldn’t hear it unless I released the trigger. I did open the meter door and I could hear it decent! But with the door closed it’s just not loud enough. My boxes are recessed pretty deep. Don’t know if that has...

Where I live, the city is pretty lax on commercial property. I live in a fairly small town, in a rural area. Most businesses are not real close to housing districts. No houses are close enough to me to hear it! But I could see where it might be a problem if you were close to housing districts...

I can, but it will be next week. I’m out of town this week on vacation!

Yes, it’s pointing almost directly at the coin slot. I’m just going to keep them the way they are and see if I get anymore complaints.
