Sounds like you are talking about the taperlock bushing. This is P/N 11215-207.

When you say the trifoam isn't coming on until the middle of the car, are you talking about the water, the chemicals, or both? The trifoam cycles all begin at the front of the vehicle on a Softgloss (photoeyes are not involved in starting trifoam). If water is not coming on, with trifoam...

You can use the wet down test, but again, hard to check output voltage at the PLC with the door open and brushes spinning. If you have a hand held programming console, you could disconnect the wire at Y30, force on the PLC output to make sure that PLC output is still putting out 24V.

The 1" valve is the main water valve. It has two wires going to it. One will be 24V, and the other will be common (wire 25). The hot one comes from the wire connected to PLC output Y30. Because you don't want to energize the valve with the electrical cabinet door open, I would recommend you...

On the Softgloss, the PLC output that controls the main wash water valve should be Y30. You will have a wire that runs from there to the coil of the V30 main wash water valve. Are you getting 24VAC to the coil of the valve? if not, check the PLC output and associated wiring. If you are...

The problem has been resolved, but I agree that marking the inputs that should be on with the machine at home position makes it easier to diagnose a problem like this.

You have program 25696-000 revision B installed in your Softgloss. Code 8401 indicates a VFD fault code and the machine is down. Sequence code 0139 is a program step that occurs after the machine is told to decel at the conclusion of the rinse passes. Most likely you are moving quickly on...

On a Delta VFD, the parameters that hold the fault codes are 73, 74 and 75. They will clear though when you turn the disconnect to open the cabinet unless you have the interlock removed. For a description of the fault codes, here is a link to where you can download the users manual for that...

If anyone else experience this on a US2001 OHD that has the trolley mounted side sensors, here are the inputs that need to be on with the machine in home position: With the arm on the right side of the machine and directed like it would spray the right side of the car, you should see: X41 and...

Mike, do you have a hand-held programming console? What program is installed? To determine the program, look at the PLC of the machine. Near the bottom, you should see a cover that you can remove where the EEPROM chip is installed. For an OHD, the first 5 digits of the program number will be...

The oil we recommend in our reducers is Mobil SHC-634. While it's more cost effective for our techs to just replace the reducers than rebuild them, you should be able to find someone that could do it for you easily.

If they are working for a few cars and quit, please also verify that you are getting 24V to the coil of the valves. I'd also recommend you drain the moisture from the compressor as that can also cause issues.

Each arm has a prox. When an arm is in the full "out" position, the proxes should be off. As the arm sweeps inward, the prox should turn "ON", and as they close to center, the prox should again go "OFF". Code 17 indicates that an arm prox isn't turning on when expected. best way to determine...

I would recommend you contact your local MacNeil distributor, GoodSight. They can be reached at 61 2 9757 4700. If they are unable to assist you, please feel free to contact MacNeil technical support in Barrie. They can be reached at 1-855-347-4751 and they will be happy to assist you.

Not exactly. If a vehicle pulls forward off the bay switch and they pulse the backup air switch one time, they can go reverse and get back on the bay switch and the machine should run. If a vehicle pulls forward off the bay switch, they pulse the backup air switch one time and continue...

Usually when we hear of a machine locking out the bay plates, it's caused by something being positioned incorrectly. The machine needs to be all the way to the home position with it up against the endstop bumpers at the exit end of the track, and the bay plate and backup air switch need to be...

No, the pinwheels were only available in filament.

DiamondWash is correct. It was only available as high pressure. Sorry, but I haven't been able to find any photos either.

There are actually quite a few of the older R7B family of machines still in operation today around the country (sorry, but can't provide locations). Regular maintenance on them, and they would easily go over 2,000,000 washes. Although the pinwheel brushes seem strange today, keep in mind that...

As the machine is basically at home, but still tagging a 33, it's likely a bad photoeye or rear endstop prox, but as this Monarch II (not a Mon I) was built in 1993, it could easily be a cable at fault. It would likely be very easy to troubleshoot if the owner decides to have someone visit the...
