Have had an issue with the Laserwash 4000 docking dryer lately. The dryer only travels not quite to the rear of the vehicle. Leaves a couple feet not dried. Techs, PDQ, etc have any idea why this is happening. Y41 & 40 seem to be operating fine. The only thing that will change the distance it...

Does anyone have any idea where I could find a good SS 360 deg bay boom that the hose goes all the way from the gun to the swivel and the swivel is easy to replace? Most of the booms I have looked at have a separate hose from the swivel to the end of the boom and a fitting that the bay hose...

I have a pit that is about 42in square. The one side gets the passenger side tires of smaller cars and therefore is wearing the edge of the concrete ledge down. Any suggestions how to enlarge this ledge where the grate rests. There is already a steel angle the whole perimeter of the pit that the...

I have read a bit on cameras off and on over the years but have not kept up. It seems that the "big box" store systems are cropping up more and more in the forum. Are they really as good of quality as others that used to be the "go to" systems? I need something with good quality picture, easy...

Has anyone converted a Hamilton DRS with XE validators over to Mars validators. Are there any regrets? I think I was strung a couple weeks ago and would like to make some changes. The security on the DRS "SUCKS".

I had to clean out my vacs the other day. Hadn't been done for awhile as my helper always did it and he is no longer with me and I apparently forgot. Does anyone have an opinion on the canisters/catchers placed inside the vacs? Thanks

After 2 low pressure passes the arch is making the high pressure pass too close to the front bumper, sometimes impacting the bumper. my experience tells me that if the front eyes are at fault the bridge should go long not short and I believe the same for the amp but not sure. I unplugged Y-40 in...

Does anyone know of a good source for the black and white bridge and dryer rollers for the 4000 other than PDQ. The rollers I am speaking of have a bearing at each end but do not have the retainer/seal. Just the bearing. I guess the older 4000s had a seal to protect the bearing. PDQs price is...

I am planning on having an area that starts 8 feet above the floor and goes to the 15 ft ceiling in a Laserwash 4000 bay painted. The bay is 60 ft long.The area is old previously painted block. We last had it painted in 2000. It held up fairly well. It was last painted with a regular latex paint...

I just received a bill from my PDQ distributor for a repair kit for a dump valve!!!!!!!!!!! I know their prices are out of sight but this is really ridiculous. $155.00 I have heard of just plugging the dump valve, that it is not really needed. Has anyone ever tried this? Did it work ok...

I have been at this a long time but have been having some issues with the above. First how does everyone heat their troughs. I use the floor heat but last winter was BRUTAL (15 to 20 below at times) and I found myself closed for 10 days or so in January and a few more days throughout the winter...

About 4 weeks ago we had a water emergency in our community. Some lines were actually emty. We closed the washes for a few days and all was ok after about 4 days. Everything is still OK at the washes but at our home we are still getting alot of air in the water. When the hot water is turned on...

Any idea how to get TDS out of well water to use in SS & IBA? I have an old well that I could possibly use but it is very high in TDS. I forget how high, just know it is VERY high.

Has anyone received the letter(s) from Bancorp about no longer providing services and the accounts going to TSYS Merchant Solutions which I believe is First National of Omaha? Has anyone read all 33 pages or more of the contract? Do all Merchant providers have such large fees when/if you need to...

Does anyone know where I can get the old yellow/black plastic traffic light sign. The red lense says stop, yellow, back up and green, go. It is what came with the old Laserwash 4000s. Atleast that is what came with mine. I looked on a few websites but could not locate them. They take a standard...

Does anyone know of somewhere I could send a Siemens PLC to see if there is a problem with it and if there is, get it repaired? Thanks

I have had the need in the past a few times to try and give advice to people that have spilled gasoline in a car. I really don't know where to send them. Now my neice has spilled a gallon in her trunk. Where should she go? A detailer, a car dealership etc. What is the best way to handel this...

I haven't heard anything about Etowah's meter boxes with new CC system and bill acceptors. There were several posts in the past about some purchases but I don't remember anyone posting what they thought after they had installed them. They were also supposed to have wireless systems for the...

As stated above. #1- Has anyone used Banc Corp for their credit card processing and if so how have they been? I use First National and they are getting REAL bad with the hidden fees. They now want an annual fee for each location to certify the software from Hamilton is secure. Banc Corp says...

I am currently having a problem with the arch rotating 360 degrees w/o stopping. Sometimes it will stop at one prox but not too often. I checked the proxes and they are all lighting. I cleaned the cams and prox heads. The cords seem OK but to have all the cords or proxes go at the same time...
