Hi all! Thanks for all of your help from earlier. After careful consideration reviewing the pros and cons, I ended up adding a nayax reader to a laurel accessory box by KR and paired it to a new Ginsan-402 timer for count-down mode operation. We left the old paraplate T24120 timers with the 15 coin limit in the pump room, but added the ginsan 402 timer behind the nayax unit and tied it in to the coin- and + switches so that we wouldnt be limited by the 15 coin limits for the old paraplates. We did this in phases, first installing the new Ginsan timers and then later wiring the nayax units a few weeks later. After we wired in the nayax readers, the nayax readers successfully powered on the bays following payment/ selection, however they all are limiting washes to around 10 minutes. We also were doing some testing following the nayax install and the cancel button on the ginsan was not turning off the wash, indicating the old paraplate timers were controlling the bay time. The fact that the washes are being limited to 10 minutes or less regardless of money spent on the credit card reader tells me the paraplates are the only timer being activated.
Do we think I maybe burned up all 4 Ginsan timers and they need to be swapped out? I don't think there is an active short at present because we crimped terminal connectors at each terminal and inspected all wiring installed by my electrician. It's very possible we started out with some incorrect wiring to the ginsan timer and made some corrections and accidentally jumped some terminals that burnt out the timers. I know accidentally jumping between the coin switch and the common terminal can result in coin acceptor failure, but could it also cause timer failure? We did burn out 1 or 2 24v fuses in the pump room so safe to say we probably messed up the wiring at first.
I think my next plan will be to buy 4 more Ginsan 402 timers at $70 each and just swap them out unless others have something else I missed. It's not likely these came defective since they worked for a few weeks prior. I dont think this is going to be a warranty replacement. I know I can also the pulse wire and then jump hot and coin switch to see if the bay turns on and see, but I want to make sure I bring all of the right backup materials with me if it turns out to be a badtimer. Thanks in advance for your help!
