watery tri foam in one bay

[timbulb]

I have an 8 bay self serve wash. My trifoam has stopped working in one bay. I've checked everything except the solenoids. Is this likely the cause? It works great in all the other bays.

Have you cleaned your foam generator?

 

[timbulb]

I’ll try that tomorrow morning.

Are you getting air out to the bay? Or just chemical?

That’s what I was thinking, and I’m suspecting a solenoid.

Not sure how you have your equipment plumbed and wired but I would try pulling out the solenoid and plumbing straight through with a shutoff valve in its place to try and debunk my theory of bad solenoid before replacing.

Pulling the guts out of a solenoid would do the same thing for testing purposes

Swap the chemical line from bay 7 to 8 and see if the problem follows the line. If not then it’s the solenoid.
