Yeah, vac works perfectly fine otherwise. The same issue just popped up on another vac at a different location. Both vacs work fine otherwise and when the bill acceptor stops sending the coin signal, the coin acceptor still works fine, so I'm not really sure what could cause that. Would the...

I have not, but can do that today. Am I just looking for the standard 110v coming in and at then 24 out of the transformer?

I've had a couple people ask about a receipt in the last two years and for them I just emailed them a receipt I made using Microsoft Word. You can see what they spent online and what time, so it was easy.

Just wanted to check back in and see if anyone else had any suggestions. So far I have tried replacing the bill acceptor, the bill acceptor wiring harness, the timer, and checked all wires for corrosion. Still the same issue, bill acceptor only sends the coin pulse signal for a few minutes/one...

I have worked with Tom a few times and he is always awesome to deal with. What did they do for you? Just curious so that I can know what I can ask for :)

Lol. Love it!

I will give that a shot, but I'm curious, what does the timer have to do with the service and out of service lights? I didn't' think they were related?

What can I check in order to find out/fix the issue? Thanks.

I have a JC Sham/Vac and lately the green in service light is on, but the red out of service light is also flashing. The unit is full of soap and works fine, but I can't figure out why both lights are on. Does that mean anything? I tried resetting the machine with no luck, so I just unplugged...

I put in my spare acceptor today and it ended up doing the same thing. Worked for about an hour or so then it would take the bill and not activate the timer. A reset of the vac breaker fixes it. I tried a different timer and it did the same thing. I checked the wiring and all good there...

That would make things easier, but like you said, it is a poor mans setup. I think that if I can automate the purge, then that would make it worth doing the extra work to set everything up. Is there a way to activate the FB in each bay from inside the ER? Going out to the bay is not a big...

I just realized that I have been saying 55 gallon drum for the anti-freeze but what I actually have is a 30 gallon drum. No wonder it seems absurd to use that much lol. It's still using a lot, but half a 30 gal is much less than half a 55.

When you get a chance, I would appreciate a picture or more information on your system. About my usage, look at this picture. The bottom black line is where the chemical was on Monday when I switched over. It has not been that busy and it has already gone down over two inches. I used a beige...

Sorry, I should have been more detailed. It is a MEI 2412 24v bill acceptor. I thought it might be wiring, but the fact that a reboot fixes it without having to touch the wiring made me eliminate that. I do have a spare that I can try. When you say the main board, is that the small green...

I have a bill acceptor in one of my JC combo vacs that keeps acting up. It will take the $1 and then not send the pulses to the timer to start. After taking the $1 it stays in service and doesn't shut down, so that makes it worse as other people can lose their money as well. Resetting the...

Your right, it would only save a little bit of time. The way Rudy has it setup is the way to go, I just need to figure out how to do it exactly. I have it set on the beige tip and what happened was that after a good snow it warmed up and cars were lined up all day for at least two days...

Rudy, would you mind posting pictures of your setup? I could probably set something up like that for now then maybe do the more extensive system in the future. In the meantime, I am currently switching the chemical hose to the hyrdominder to switch between regular and winter FB. It would be...

Lol, I've never been of a fan of their combo vacs, but heard great things about the tire inflation machines. Where would the best place to buy one be? I have been looking for a used unit with no luck. KleenRite sells them, but I wonder if I can get them cheaper somewhere else.

What a great thread. Very detailed and informative. Unfortunately it seems a little (ok a lot) above my experiese, so I'll have to weigh my options. I think your setup seems to be by far the best way to go though. I was thinking that even if I had two tanks and it switched over at a set...

I've had some demand for a tire inflation machine and have been wanting to add one for a while There seem to be many options out there. What do you guys recommend? Something simple, or more complex? Hanging hose or retractable? I figure some of you guys already have units out there and...
