not yet trying to find an answer though

 

[dwolfe]

yes that was at another location the arch rotate prox was a defective one sorry about that.

If your using a Hamilton ACW try replacing the cycle inhibit relay in the upper right hand corner of the ACW, it should be marked “C I”

 

[MEP001]

But don't just swap relays around, the cycle inhibit may have a different coil voltage than the others.

wash select is what I have . working now have not reset today yet

The Startup Test Wheel Well means that the X31 input was on during a startup test. This causes the machine to believe there is a vehicle in the bay. Unless you have 20C in your A5000 this will shutdown the car wash until it is forced to do a new startup test and sees the problem cleared.

If you have a treadle then you should check the bumper, wheel well prox and cable.

If you have a VT then check the stop eyes, cable and VT card.

yep fire up the bulldozer and call in the wrecking ball crane...

 

[getnbusy]

replace the shear bolt and or take the lower arch off and bend it towards the front of the car. sometimes the bolt is bent just enough to block the front t bar eyes. hoe this helps

 

[dwolfe]

Bolt was bent as well as the lower 2ft of the arch , no idea who did that but must of trashed their vehicle too. Removed the arch took it in my shop had to set it up on my press and straighten. The backup eye was blocked. Customers are the worst and best at the same time. Thanks all
