For some reason when ever you press the button the solenoid stays open till the tank runs out of air. At first I thought it was a stick button so I pressed it and disconnected the electrical from the solenoid but that didn’t do anything, it just kept beeping. Anyone know how to fix this I just installed it today. I’m going to call tomorrow. For now I’ll have to just beep at people with this thing running the whole time.
before ya throw the valve to the round file try spraying a litle wd40 down the barrel of the piping.might have some grit minor corrosion on the slide. may be able to free it up.
yea the 1/4 will work perfect…i had the same problem with the electric valve that comes with the kit and ended up replacing it with a smc and it worked perfect after that
undo the compression fitting first b4 the reducer / fitting on valve…
The problem with the valve now i would bet is the diaphragm has a hole in it or a crack… as soon as the back pressure goes out the valve stays open. had this happen to me twice… one time during the middle of the day, valve opened by itself and stayed open , emptying tank, scaring the crap outta me. lol
[b]just got a call from my buddy @ toyota i gave him 1/2 of my old horn kit and delivered the solenoid valve so he could get the horn set-up working. well… he calls me up to say he’s deaf now cause the valve I gave him stuck open and drained the 5 gallon tank with the horn blasting for more than 8 secs. any suggestions. don’t have 50.00 for a smc valve either.
