Hey Kimberly - I own 2 SS washes in Salem, Oregon. I read that you converted to dollar value tokens at your location. We currently use quarter value tokens and it's become cumbersome for my manager to sort/count and for customers to plug 16 tokens to start a bay. How has that conversion been for you and what process did you go through to convert acceptors, etc. to put it in place? Thanks for your input!

Hi there, I'm limited to 420 characters! Lots to share to convert to $1 tokens. We did in 1/2015 due to quarter theft. BEST decision ever! It stopped theft & customers could use their CC to purchase tokens from Hamilton cashier. It was 9 month project, to research/design tokens, upgrade electronic coin acceptors, replace plastic hopper wheels, update signage. Reply or send a text to schedule a chat. 916-798-1123.

I have a IDX TIMER at411, model . I can confirm the swiper is still lit up with the rainbow colors. It will turn green when a card is swiped. The vacuum does not come on at all.
I did verify the low voltage fuse is not blown. What is next ?

You need to check the output of the AT411. Measure across terminal 6 and 3 on the 411. You really need to post this in the thread you started, also. That way others can use the knowledge in the future.
Can anyone recommend any classes that can be taken or certification programs that are available for touchless and in bay automatics?

Warning: Many mobile trash can & dumpster cleaner manufacturers in the USA tell their clients to illegally dump their 500-600 gal wastewater holding tanks into self-serve car wash bays, filled with wastewater containing large amounts of solid & liquid waste, fecal matter, kitty litter, oil, animal fats, rancid food waste, dirt that can clog wash bays, overflow holding tanks, or damage wastewater filtration systems
