My coin acceptor on a self serve (Jim Coleman) is counting quarters twice. I have swapped out the coin acceptor twice, the computer board, and the timer. No luck. Still double pulsing. Anyone have any ideas of where else to look?

I have an error 37 (High Voltage Problem) on my softgloss unit. Loud buzzing sound from my control panel when I turn power on. No breakers are tripped. Any guidance would be appreciated.

I have adjusted my ball valves coming in and pressure is back in two (of my three bays). I don't think that was the main problem but I have had little time to troubleshoot as I have been tending to my automatics. The issue is in my self serves and I am heating the water going into them...

After a recent cold spell, all of my self serve bays are suffering from low water pressure. I have swapped out my Cat Pump and I have changed out the pressure regulating valves, with no luck. Still fairly new at this and can't figure it out. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.

I recently had a customer call with a complaint that an icicle fell and dented his vehicle. I want to work with the individual, but his demeanor is making it difficult. Research in the area (and a conversation with my insurance agent) tells me that falling icicles that are naturally occurring...

i am fairly new at this, so can you please give me some more details. The input wire where? on my Ryko control panel on my automatic? or on the door control? Thanks for taking the time to help. I very much appreciate it.

yes, I think it is the floor loop, but I don't know how to address it. I have a Ryko Soft Gloss.

Thanks for the responses. They eyes seem to be sensing just fine. THey click when the beam is broken, as they should and they send the door up when broken. I also disengaged the safety eyes from the control box yesterday and still was not able to close the doors. Given those things, could it...

I have airlift doors in one of my bays. As the weather has turned cold this week I have encountered a problem that has me puzzled: My exit doors will not close automatically when a customer leaves. I can close the doors with the switch, and it will stay closed until the wash is used again...

Thanks to everyone for all the help. As it turns out, it was a broken wire in the boom assembly. When the unit moved, it reconnected and started the wash. It was frustrating, but finally fixed! Hope this helps someone in the future.

OK. It is still happening. I am fairly new at this and am still trying to figure out. Where is the check valve on my board? That seems like a very reasonable solution. The water and foam both don't start til part of the way back the car. It is worse when the wash has not been used in a...

Darin, Thank you for your reply. I would LOVE to order a part from Ryko, but I put in application for an account over 4 months ago and no one seems to want to approve it. It took phone calls over a period of a month to even get a reply back, and now I only get responses to my e-mails...

I had a fan blower motor blow in one of my bays. I have a Ryko Softgloss. It is a pain to get out and I have finally had to cut the collars on both sides of the motor shaft to get the motor out? Does anyone know the part numbers for these collars, as it looks like I will have to order some...

It was a valve. It was not coming on til late. I had one that controls the tri foam. Thanks for all your help. I am finding this to be a valuable resource.

Thanks. I'll check that out too.

Triple Color. I am thinking that it is a solenoid that needs to be replaced, but not sure

I have Ryko Softgloss and the colored foam bath is not starting til about half way down the car. From then on, everything works fine. Any suggestions? I am fairly new to the car wash business so any help will be appreciated.

Just reading thru this post and am trying to program a 1034R timer. Do you still have the programming manual? I would certainly appreciate the help. Thanks.

Jim Coleman "Sparkle" equipment in self serve bays.

Thanks for the reply. I do have a voltmeter and have checked the button (I have buttons, not a dial). I really thought that would be it since the other bays work fine. What other info might you need?
