    Add Washcard to Jim Coleman Entry Wizard?

    I am looking at a carwash to possibly purchase. It has Jim Coleman equipment and I would like to know if anyone has added Washcard to the Entry Wizard and also the self-serve bays. I have Washcard on 3 other washes but none of then are Jim Coleman. If so what are the likes and dislikes?

    MK VII Auto

    It is probably the float switch in the bottom of the presoak tank. The bottom float switch looks just like the top one but it is turned upside down. This way when it runs low the float drops and shuts down your machine. It can go bad just from the water temp.
