This problem sounds like one I went through a short time back. Several months I fought falling flow and pressure, checked everthing mentioned here at least twice, plus items not mentioned. My problem turned out to be wash out under the intake valve seats. Remove your valve seats to inspect for...

My machine was built in 2002, SN 121615 amd the program is 25696-000. I understand what you mean by ervery scenario, but I bet you can get almost all of them. I would be happy to help you if there is any question. You did make a comment about about never heard of this situation, but it has been...

Rob is correct, I use the loop detector (actually 2, one inside, one out) and the photo eye diretly to the door motor controller. I did't realize that there was an option on how to hook up the photo eyes. How do I hook them into the plc, and what is it going to do? Rob, your freeze alarm idea is...

Thanks, My installer did not include eyes, and as a result the door actually closed on a customer which cost me damage repair. That is when I installed photo eyes that are tied into the Liftmaster (electric door opener) which is a safety to keep that sort of thing happening again. So, I guess...

I will have to look into this as I don't know nothing about, or even knew there are amplifiers. But my question is will this give me a repeated signal until the doors are confirmed down? It seems to me to get a confirmed down signal a magnetic prox switch will be required that will be mounted to...

I have electric Liftmaster (I think) openers and polycarbinate doors. The exact same doors on both machines. Thanks

Yes, I do have the flashing light. The doors do work properly most of the time. It is just every now and then that the exit door will remain open, and of course once will do thge damage. This actually happened the last time about 0ne week ago, and I was at the wash before anybody tried to go...

I have thought of different ways to trigger the door to close, but what I really need is assurance that the door will close, for what ever reason it did not close the first time. The door control needs to recognize if the door is closed, or not, and if not, wait a given time (say 1 min.) and...

I have a 2 bay wash w/ Futura touchfree one one side, Ryko SoftGloss on the other. Door control on the Futura works beautifully, the Ryko has a flaw that I have had to live with since day one regarding the closing of the exit door. There have been many instances where the exit door does not...

A few days ago I asked if anyone experienced problems with the rear lens blowing out of an 03 Cadillac CTS. I thank everyone for their response and am amazed at the number of incidents and the reputation this model car has. I am having a hard time convincing myself to agree to an $800 warranty...

I recently received a waranty complaint of an owner of a 2003 Cadilac CTS saying that my RYKO softgloss busted the plastic assembly that surrounds the rear license plate which is also the lens for the back-up lights. I watched very closely on my vidio and could not see any damage occure during...

The 60 gal est, in my case, is very close. As already stated, there are other factors that can easily effect this number, so for projections you should be careful.

Thanks, yes, I see what you were refering to about the back-up switch. I don't know if that problem will ever get fixed because I have had it to one degree or another since the machine was new. It just happens that a car will come in get a back-up light and the only way to get it out is to leave...

Thanks for the reply. My wheels are not worn much (8 months) and the back-up air switch hose is located the same as it always has. The back-up switch works, so I guess it is ok, but I will check it for wear. C011 code you mentioned is the front limit is activated while doing the wheel scrub, and...

I have been having a great amount of control problems with my soft gloss, especially with the highest dollar wash that uses the wheel scrub option. The problem is intermittent and various in nature. The worst situation is when the machine finishes the first wash pass and starts toward the rear...

Rudy, yes, the idea is comimg together, I have to find the pieces and parts to make it work. In thinking this through I have to be careful to not interfere with the normal operation of the door opening which is working fine. But you have given me the information that what I want done is...

Rudy, I guess that I'm at a loss. 1. Is the photo eye control panel you speak of in your car wash machine or in your overhead door operator? Are you working with a Ryko machine? Is the PLC seperate from the wash machine or are you somehow using the PLC in the Ryko controller. My photo eyes are...

Thanks for the interesting thoughts. First, the photo eye idea. I don't know if I can use the photo eye as an input or not, I'm going to have to find out. Althogh I do know that my magnet is working because the exit door blow dryer shuts down when cars leave early, and also an indicator light in...

The exit door for my Ryko Softgloss does not always close in cold weather. I guess that about 1 out of 5 washes, the door does not close as it should. This is really a problem in extreamly cold weather when the door would remain open all night (it has happened). I know that the Ryko door control...

Ryko hitting hoime stop too hard Thanks Rykopro, my softgloss XS model 99069030, work order 3675610, SN 121615, FX-EEPROM-16 has the handwrote number 25696-000. I hope that one of these numbers tells what I need. I noticed today that the return travel home for almost all of the passes is too...
