    Pump Pressure

    Lol exactly! I always like knowing what the problem was, so one item at a time is the way to go even if you go back after and replace the other components. Unfortunately a few times I ended up changing all of the components and then the problem turned out to be something else completely.

    Pump Pressure

    I second what cantbreak80 says. The first place to start is always to check the nozzle. I learned the hard way after replacing many parts one time trying to chase down a low pressure problem and all along it was just a worn nozzle.

    Pump Pressure

    Seems like you need to replace your high pressure seals. I had a couple of pumps that were stuck on 500 psi and once the HPS were changed it worked perfectly.

    I purchased the Kisan Newton V from a local seller a few months ago and it was the best thing I could have done. With two car washes, I have saved countless hours with the machine. It is super fast, full of features and works perfectly, but is not cheap. I paid about $2500 for mine. Here is...

    Problem with diognostic LED on Ryko

    I have a Ryko Softgloss and the small led screen that gives you the two digit codes when there is a problem is malfunctioning. I can only see part of the left digit and none of the right, making it impossible to check codes or test functions. I have had this problem before but turning it off...

    Bill acceptor drilling

    I understand that they have given you great warranty service and support, but in my book it is even better to not need the warranty. I have 5 MEI 2412 units in one of my car washes ss bays, and about 6 other Mars acceptors in various changers and auto bays and have had 0 issues with them so...

    Bill acceptor drilling

    Thanks for the pictures guys. All of this talk of water damage is making me seriously consider just buying refurbished units off of eBay for around $100. That way I could buy 3 units for the price of 1 and it won't be a big loss if I do lose an acceptor to water damage.

    I'll probably drill holes as well and would appreciate a picture. Thanks.

    Add on Bill Acceptor Boxes in Bays

    I should probably have rephrased my question... Since I am starting from scratch, I have to decide whether it is worth an extra $70/bay to add the capability to accept $10 bills? If I already had an acceptor that took them, I would turn on the $10 acceptance for sure.

    Mine will be near the center, so they will get overspray. I have a wash that has bill acceptors with the coinboxes on the edge and I have never had a water problem. I want to take every pre-caution on these though. I opted for the 2412 acceptors figuring that accepting $1 and $5 enough. The...

    It does have slots where you can put a bar over the locks for added security. I agree about the snout sticking out, though I do have many pop machines that have the snout sticking out and it hasn't been a problem. You mentioned that you had drilled a hole in the bottom of your Mars acceptors...

    giving up on scrubber

    Any idea what it would cost to convert to the wheel blasters on a soft gloss? Ballpark figure? I have the wheel scrubbers, but they have been turned off ever since I bought the wash almost a year ago. I haven't received a single complaint, but I would rather have something that cleans the...

    Can you watch your security cameras from your cell phone?

    I have cameras at all of my businesses and am able to watch all of them from my cell phone. As long as the dvr is connected to the internet, you can view remotely. I use an Android app called IP Cam Viewer. Works perfect and I check in multiple times daily.

    I will try to call Jim, but getting a hold of him is near impossible. Still haven't placed my order because the quote he sent me only had one box on it and I need six. I'm waiting on an updated quote. How do I know which harness I need? They are going to be hooked up to Dixmor Led 7 timers.

    Do the bill acceptors that come from Etowah Valley not have the wiring harness that is needed to connect them to the Dixmor timers? If you had to buy them separately, which harness did you use and where did you buy it from? Thanks.

    Credit card or Bill acceptors

    I was going to get the Mars 2412 in by bill boxes because that is what I am familiar with, but I also have the option of getting the Coinco Vantage. Is one better than the other in terms of reliablity or any other reason?
