Looking for ideas.
I have a Double arm Kondor we installed at our new site in November. Washed about a month without any issues. Since then have had issues with a premature rear butterfly. The machine will butterfly too soon on pickup trucks. Always first pass. Always open bed. Always the rear of the vehicle. Use to happen once in a couple weeks. Now it’s nearly once a day. Working with tech support and distributor. Have swapped sonar. Swapped Cables. Checked grounding. Changed VFDs to emit no electrical noise. Adjusted sonar. Adjusted back adder. Adjusted floor window. Running out of ideas. I think it’s a sonar issue. Especially since it’s always trucks with open beds on the first pass. Visually caught it happening today. Machine travels wayyyyy to slow over pickup bed. Like it’s thinking. Then butterflies too soon. Reset wash and ran same pickup through without a problem. Always about 12” too close so that it touches the bumper and shuts down. Tech support wants me to step down my “wild leg” of my 3 phase power. Electrician and distributor don’t think that’s the problem. Any ideas welcome. Attached a photo of dates codes and position.
