I need to keep it positive with all the bad weather.  I finished installing all the Flojet ½ push lock fittings (20381063) and color hoses.  Should be easier to trouble shoot and shut down the correct product.  The last picture is all the pieces that got replaced by converting to the push locks.

I learned an important lesson today.  You should organize your tools and always have a spare flat head screwdriver.  These devices help when unscrewing flat head screws.

Only 88 cents each and the picture looks like a Lowe’s commercial, maybe they will send me a coupon or something.

Only took about two months to swap it out.  http://cwguy.com/?p=1721

One had a coin jam the other had a jammed bill.  What is interesting is the bend in the bill.

My Weep Mizer was having problems, like not working.  I was talking to Randy and he said I should send it in to Dixmor.  I have called them before and they seem very professional and nice.  They actually faxed me something that I asked for!  How many companies do that?  The good news is I have a WEEPER 2.81! (Last picture, actually I have no clue what version is cool.)

Well, the bad news is, the weeper looks a little messed up.  Actually, this is what Greg predicted I did to my weeper.

I just want to say all the functions worked in the bays before I opened them.  I check them once a week and really never have problems.  I just should not open the doors.

It all started with a coin jam.  Someone really beat the crap out of it and the coin acceptor came unscrewed.  I also replaced my broken in-line fuse.

I then tested the bay and the spot free did not work (purple and black wire).  I did not know where the wire connected so I opened another meter door.  Bad mistake.  Now high pressure does not work on the second bay (second picture).  Also, this red wire snapped off (third picture). 

I believe my problem is the wires are corroded and seem very brittle.  Also, the terminals seem rusted.

So I opened the third bay to fix the second bay.  Again bad idea.   You get the picture.
