The other day our tandem e chain slide off and caught and the only thing that broke is where it attaches to the bracket on the bridge. I actually have a spare plastic end piece but that seems to be the only part of the e chain that doesn't come apart. Id have to disconnect every hose and wire...

This is Rochester, the one circled in red is ours, we lease the space, it came as part of a package with owned real estate. We are new to this and closed 8 months ago, when we bought we actually planned on closing and pulling out of this location. Go is in orange on the main road and delta sonic...

We have a few locations, some of the municipalities will take it, some we will likely have to pay a disposal fee. But even with a disposal fee it'll still be a lot cheaper.

We recently got our first bill from a septic company as well. We decided to take matters in to our own hands. They aren't easy to find but they are out there.

Well its always the last thing you check that solves the problem I suppose. We wanted to change the power cable to the arch motor on New Years Day because it looked rough. No one was open and we didn't have any extra wire. So we wrapped the bad spots and hoped for the best. The Wet tech called...

It does not appear that the G5 has prox switches. I was there 12 hours yesterday. We replaced the arch encoder, the arch card both in the control box and the bridge, the Lon wire, we swapped the arch gear box with a known good gear box, we tested the arch motor, we replaced the arch VFD. And it...

Where are the prox switches located on the G5? I know the 4000 and the 360 has them so i assume the G5 does as well but i'm not seeing them.

We had an arch fail to rotate and as a result hit the front bumper of a car then stop right in front of the car. Not a big deal. But then after a minute the trolly tries to go home and drags the arch up and over the top of the car. In the log it shows arch impact deactivated right before that...

Okay thank you for the info. I will try these things. We have two G5s at this location and they are both down with tough to diagnose issues and this is our busy season. I will start a separate thread for the other one. We were hoping that the tech would find more with it but after a whole day...

I turned down the pressure on the hpa from 90 to 70 and it is now running through a full wash. But our other sites pressure is set to 100. Could it be the pump motor itself causing the draw?

I am scratching my head here. Had a Wet Technician out yesterday and he wasn’t able to fix it either. It keeps stopping mid wash. It’s a list of unrelated errors it seems. I have attached screen shots. Has anyone else had these issues?

I work in trucking, fright brokering to be exact. I sit in a comfortable chair in a warm office in front of a computer all day. Everyday has interesting challenges, and you deal with all walks of life, I've been doing it for 11 years and I hate it. I'm only 10 months in to owning car washes and...

No spring, its a weighted fabric door. the motor rolls it up and the weight of the door lets itself back down with an electric brake to control holding it open and letting it back down. the brake is on the top of the gear reducer at the other end of the motor shaft.

I want to be able to make and repair the 1" high pressure hoses for the IBAs. The local parts stores can make them but they're very expensive and not always open. I have a bucket of fittings and a roll of hose, I'm not sure how much is left on the roll but id guess at least 50'. It seems every...

Yes, that isa concern. The gear reducer spins freely and the door isn't stuck. Could the system have faulted and held the brake?

Do any of you own your own hose crimping tool? If so, what do you have an are you happy with it? I want to be able to do the full range of sizes needed and being portable is preferred. I have a Weather head press that the previous owner left but no Dies for it and the dies are very expensive on...

It looks like there may be a "stub shaft" between the motor and the gear reducer. The parts are at a motor shop now and i just shared this link with them. Im not sure how difficult it is to get this part. https://gfa-elektromaten.com/en-DE/product-detail/stub-shafts.html

Thank you Buckeye Hydro, I did see this but mine is a 460v. I talked to an electrician about converting but the controller is 460v so he’s not confident that it’s possible.

Well I got a quote of $4000 for a new operator. Anyone have any suggestions? It almost looks like there is a sacrificial shaft between the motor and the gear reducer but without an exploded view or a machine shop I’m really not sure.

Does anyone have experience with these doors? It appears that the shaft where the motor connects to the gear box has sheered off. I am not sure if the motor could be salvaged by getting that piece of the shaft out. I am also not sure what could have caused this other than a faulty shaft. When I...
