Just bought a wash with laserwash G5 which Hadn’t ran in about a year. Last owner was told by local company that it needed new nozzles (I saw the quote) so I replaced them all and it finally After many months of effort to fix burst nozzles and tlc maintenance, I got it spraying beautifully. Not knowing if there were other issues, I figured if I washed my own car 20 times without a failure, it can remain open. It passed. And yes, I checked the impact switch which worked
well… the 3RD VEHICLE after my car test got roughed up because the arm
Over-rotated and contacted the vehicle, scraping it on all sides with the backside of the arm (spraying away from the vehicle). It reseted in home position after the incident. On my next test, it didn’t rotate the normal 90* to spray the front of my hood during presoak so I aborted and left it
local company says it needs new motor, gearbox, encoder, swivel, and a bunch of small parts… decent bill.
I can see the encoder, maybe the gearbox, but has anyone seen all of these dominoes fall at one time? I’m just curious if anyone has experience troubleshooting these components or any ideas on where to start. They got me by the ba**s because refusing any recommended part puts the ball in my court, but I’d like to troubleshoot more before firing the parts cannon.
also, has anyone tried the mosmatic swivel for one of these?
thanks
