in my ongoing struggle to bring this zombie car wash back to life, my immediate needs turn to facing down the upcoming Ohio winter. There is no floor heat in the wash, although it appears at one time there was. All I have now are these lines sticking out of the floor (pic) I do not know why the...

How can you spot a self serve car wash owner? Their wallet only has 1's and 5's! Bada Bing! It's going to be beautiful here, let's have a profitable weekend SS owners!

OurTown - Not a fan of J E Adam's I presume?

I wish I could say that shocked me but in my short time in the business the one thing I have learned is everything is expensive.

Geesh... that's so obvious it didn't even occur to me. Thanks @MEP001

So, this happened. It looks like they were cut but I don't know how that could happen. I stripped the wires and realized I didn't know how to get the little bits of blue and yellow wire out or how to keep the wires in the connector. Is there some crimping tool?

I had an ad pop up on Facebook about the Car Wash Show in November. Being 70 days into owning a 4 bay SS, would it be worth going? Is the show geared toward EE or is there enough information in the education sessions and vendors to help a new SS owner? Opinions and advice appreciated!

I have mars 800 IDX. If I put a quarter in, it comes out the reject slot at the bottom instead of dropping into the coin box. It is not registering on the timer, so it is not being reading the coin being dropped. It worked yesterday, I swear! What are some things to looks for or adjust to get...

To update this, I managed to break the screw lock with a better quality allen and a slightly longer pipe to lever it as suggested by David Rolf. My next stop had that not working would have been an impact, but luckily, that wasn't needed.

I have a lock that appear to have gotten threaded. I have tried the pipe on the end of the Allen wrench for more leverage and managed to break the Allen. Other options? I presume trying to drill it would require a special bit, if anyone knows what size and type it would be appreciated. But I...

OurTown, Who did you end up using and did they work out?
