We had three of our wash select units hit the other night. Apparently these jerks are using some type of taser and zapping the machine causing it to drop the coins out. We have replaced three boards now. Car washes in our area have been hit multiple times. Any thoughts on how to prevent this?

Wow. That sounds advanced. Having had 2 of them, how are they penetrating the door and what do you think they triggered on the inside to drop the coins? Do you have them on video doing this?

You would think Unitec would contact their users and make them aware of this. but maybe not they don't on anything else.

PM me and I will tell you how they are doing it. I had Unitec give me an upgraded chip that stopped them from getting anything.
Have you been hit by thieves using This technique?? How long ago did you upgrade the chip and what was cost??

Yes. I know another forum member that was hit as well. This happened two years ago and at the time I think it was new to unitec and they gave me three chips for free. As far as I know no one has been able to do it to me again since I upgraded the chips.

I can't figure out how to get my information to you. Can you please send me an email address so I can respond to that.
