I believe I had the coin jam first…… then someone hit the meter box until the timer wire harness got unplugged.
Water Wizard Preparation – Wire run
I had to rerun the Dixmor Weep Mizer wires today. It went from the crap in the first picture to the nice and neat last picture. But during the journey I blew its fuse so I had to drive to Lowes, which is great fun!
No power….. Quarter jam!
Someone tried to beat the quarter out of the meter box…. but it did not work! 🙂 What did happen was the Dixmor timer harness fell out.
Meter box problem
My Dixmor timer seems to need to be plugged it for it to work. Who would have guessed?
What happened when my Dixmor DX-1000 Weep Mizer did not work?
(First picture from left) 1) All my high pressure hoses were frozen. 2) Broken tire cleaner hose. 3) Broken RO water hose. 4) This was a surprise, broken high pressure hose. Also a rainbow.
(First picture from left) 1) Hydrominder got stuck. 2) And another RO water hose busted.
I am not really sure why the Weep Mizer did not work, but my theory is that I had it on the screen where you select if you want it “on” or “off” and it was on “on” but I guess you have to leave the screen? All I know is that it just didn’t work.
Why reading sometimes is good?
Yes, I already got this fixed before. Yes, I might have broken it while installing it the first time. Yes, I think Dixmor is the best for repairing stuff.
So I installed the DX-1000 Weep Mizer which means that I had to remove my Rube Goldberg weep system.
I purchased an Asco Red-Hat II normally open solenoid. After installing the solenoid I needed to attach the 3 wires coming out of the solenoid. I decided to install the 2 red wires to the black wire and the green and yellow wire to the white power wire. This was the wrong way and not cutting the power first caused a huge mini-sun flash. It also turned my glove black and shocked me pretty good, making my pinkie numb. I closed my eyes and I could still see this bright light. Then after installing the wires correctly I figured out that I installed the solenoid the wrong direction. The solenoid would not close all the way when installed the wrong way, who would have thought? So the moral of the story is to try and read the instructions after you get shocked?
