    Ryko error code 12

    Absolutely nothing changes when I block the rear photo eyes.

    Ryko error code 12

    So you think that I have 2 seperate problems? I have a pressure plate that I ordered a couple of years ago and never used. Do you use 1 pressure plate or 2? I will look for the relay just as soon as my bay is empty. I was looking at the ice cube relays last night. You are talking about one of...

    Ryko error code 12

    Still nothing. I see a faint light on the drivers side and nothing on the passenger side. We are still washing cars but we have to walk out and tell people that the green light takes an extra 45 seconds to come on when we have a line and it's a sunny Saturday so that should be most of the day...

    Ryko error code 12

    I am not seeing any lights in the photo eyes. The relay sounded like a good answer!

    Ryko error code 12

    I'm getting an error code 12 which is the photo eye detector. I have lines of cars and I'm trying to keep the doors open. I notice it goes all the way back even on a short vehicle which sounds like the photo eyes may be going. I cleaned them as best I could without shutting down the process. The...

    pricing advice

    I am already the most expensive in town but also the busiest (and the best). Adding the bug spray and element shield will at least double my chemical expense per car. This year has really started off with a bang. We are probaly at least 25% above normal. I was kind of playing with leaving the 3...

    pricing advice

    I have a Ryko Softgloss. My top wash is $7 and includes trifoam, wheel scrub, and dry. I am adding, as soon as I get a rainy day, a bug spray and a "rainx" type product. I have a $5 and a $6 wash also. How much would you bump it to add the 2 new products? I think I'm going to keep the 3 that I...

    chemical concentrate leak

    My chemical guy rigged my trifoam that way, the pails just sit on the floor. I'll just do the same withy presoak I guess. It's very annoying that I paid a premium for JC equipment and it won't even hold liquid.

    RainX Experience

    I have been using CarBrite chemicals and have been very happy with them. Their product is called Element Shield. The price is comparable to the Ryko, more than Simonize and less than Rainx. Does anyone have any experience with Element Shield? I'm excited about adding a new product to the auto.

    chemical concentrate leak

    I'm reasonably certain that it is the welds but I'm not positive. My chemical guy just bypassed the holding tank on the trifoam. I guess I'll need to do the same for the presoak. They offered to fix it years ago if I would send it back to them. Wonder how often somebody takes them up on that.

    chemical concentrate leak

    I have a JC Supersaver pump bench. We have been open about 7 years now. One of the chemical holding tanks leaked nearly from the start and now the presoak is leaking. Has anybody else had a similar problem? I paid way too much money for that thing to have it not even hold chemical!

    Ryko Softgloss add-ons

    I'm just waiting for the manifold and a rainy day to do the upgrades. I probably will go with the bug/salt remover. Most people don't know that a little water and a stern look will remove salt. I was in Georgia Thursday through Sunday and the pine pollen was unbelievable. Every car was yellow...

    Ryko Softgloss add-ons

    What do you call the bug juice option? Does naming it just for bug removal limit use to part of the year?

    Dema valve?

    I think I got it. I didn't see anything but the problem stopped (so far!). Thanks

    Hey Bill!

    Hell I don't even know how to put the pictures on my computer. I can only email the things because when I take a picture it asks me if I want to email it! I emailed one to cfcw this morning and somehow managed to send it from an email account that I rarely use or check. Being able to take a...

    Hey Bill!

    Would you consider adding step by step instructions for uploading pictures from an iphone? I think it would simplify things sometimes if I could just post a picture. Being an old fart I don't know how to use 90% of my phones capability. Thanks

    Dema valve?

    It is the ro solenoid. If you turn on the ro in bay 2 it comes on in bay 1. I guess the valve I was thinking of is not the right one. Where do I look for the valve on a Jim Coleman pump bench? Thanks

    Dema valve?

    The problem is it only does it once in a blue moon. I have to wait till it happens again to try to track it down. A few weeks back I had debris in 2 different tips in the same day. I had only had that happen once before in 7 years so I'm guessing that something blew through the lines. I was...

    Source for manifold

    I am going to add a "bug juice" option to my automatic and need a good source for the manifold that is reasonably priced. Does anybody have any suggestions for a source for this manifold? Thanks
