Wash Not Starting with Prep Gun In Use

Wash Not Starting with Prep Gun In Use

In certain wash designs there is an program intentionally installed in the wash controller that prevents wash startup while a prep gun or bay cleaning gun is in use. You must first turn the bay cleaning gun off THEN start the wash after. This is a safety precaution intended to prevent a sprayer, hose, or user from being caught in the car wash brushes or conveyor system. On the national scale this, in rare instances in the past, has been an issue causing injury, damage, and even fatality. We do not recommend bypassing or overriding this safety program. Instead develop a bay cleaning procedure that can be completed before wash startup, after, or between vehicles.
