I have a self serve wash with a Ginsan timer and panel. After the timer shuts off and goes to 00:00, meaning the cycle should be over, the yellow light remains on and people are able to select any of the wash options (high pressure soap, foam brush, etc). Does this timer simply need to be replaced? Or are there any other parts to try swapping out first/quick fixes?
Thanks!

It's probably the timer. Is there one in the equipment room?

There is a timer in the equipment room as well as in the bay (times need to match). Do you have an idea as to which timer to replace first?

The timer is in the room. The one in the bay is just a display with no real function.

I used to have timers do this and usually I could just cut the power to it for a few seconds and then power it back up and all was fine. This has worked on at least 3 different brand of timers I have had so try that first before spending money.
