Thanks, looks like I got it right then.

OK found out why the D&S 5000 was not rinsing all the presoak off. the "oscillating jets" were no operating in high pressure. worked fine for presoak and spot free. I was not washing the top of the car at all. Being clever, I decided to swap the hoses with the side spinners to see if it was the...

It would seem like the check valve on the pump that I replaced (old one was definately bad), in the tire cleaner line, would keep the air back, unless it is coming in the presoak line there is no check valve on the presoak line (they T off the pump and each have own solenoid valve, pump from...

In the process of trying to solve the blow down air pressure backing up into the presoak tank, I discovered a 1/4 plastic tube wth a valve in it running from a T fitting before to a t fitting after the presoak solenoid. there was a check valve on the tire cleaner solenoid which I replaced...

Thanks that makes sense. everything was fine till I turned on the blow down during the freeze we had a couple weeks ago. I don't seem to have a choice to turn on a pressure pass that isn't already used. I have the best wash programmed with Low PH presoak, HI Pressure Hi PH presoak as the "hp...

Ok, guessing that check valve is in the octopus living in the trough on the roof. was afraid of that. Thanks!

Have been running the old 5000 for a few weeks now. Weather turned cold and I turned on the blow down function and went out of town. upon returning I noticed foam above the presoak tank. Later determined when blowing down, air bubble are back feeding to presoak tank. No problem for now as its...

tightened the top belt and it seems to be working. Now the spinners are almost impossible to move manually in one direction and pretty stiff, although will slip some, in the other direction. New link belts on the "to do" list. thanks .

yes, there is a regulator ahead of the manifold that feeds the 4 solenoids. the soap is currently mixed with hot water but of course it gets cold before it gets used usually, the heater element is no longer operational in the tank. Opening with rinse seems like a nice idea, let the customer see...

But only on some cylces. I thought these were driven directly by the gantry moving along the chain. but somtimes they spin great and othertimes they stop. belts seem to be tight. seems worse when very cold. Could something be stripped in the drive?

Still very new to this so need a little more guidance. I have a 4 bay D&S pump stand for my SS bays. while activating the weep for this recent cold snap, (which worked fortunately). I noticed 4 solenoids, which at first I thought were for weep, but noticed they are plumbed to hot water and T in...

Thanks 2Biz, I have stolen your spreadsheet!

What are you wanting for it and where are you located?

Thanks. Looks like I got it. today my enter lights would flash, then stop then flash a few times. found a couple bad connections on the test panel switches, mostly the stop button. then reprogrammed again. read the manual on the Goldline and finished the cryptopay retrofit and bought myself a...

Just wanted to publicly thank Mike at JBS. We selected JBS based on comments I read on here. Mike drove over 5 hours to get here on vary short notice, spent 2 full days in my equipment room working to revive long idle and poorly maintained equipment. All for what now seems to me to be an...

My D&S 5000 wants to wash cars again, but always runs same (basically all) functions regardless of wash level selected. I have gone through the programming of default washes per the manual. My machine has tri foam, but that is not in the program so I am trying to figure out which function it is...

LP= Low Pressure.

Installing the kit today, thought it was odd that the window for the display was white. sure enough, I thought maybe the white was like rear projection movie screen, but no luck, . the new LED display is not that bright. the whit coating does not seem to be a plastic protection layer to be...

Thanks, I will call JBS, they are on my short list based on things I've read on here.

I'm very familiar with them, (they have been getting all my money all year!). I thought about just ordering from t hem but too many choices on the website and I need someone to come out and help me get things set up and running right.
