Did the seller make it right? I have about 20 hours on mine and its doing a great job. I know the china electronics really are crude, we have some packaging machines at work and our electrician will not lay a hand on them!

Been really pleased with mine but haven't put a ton of time on it. It's probably got about 10 hrs. on it. Nonetheless its saved me a lot of manual cleaning. Money well spent so far. I hope it continues to work well because I have a bunch more things to clean and another 911 car coming to stay with me that'll put the ultrasonic to work

[cgarr]

Wow you got the big one to do the whole car!

I still have mine cause I didn't wanna ship it. They gave a partial refund. How can I fix it?

You can buy ultrasonic transducers (assuming that is what's wrong) on ebay or amazon. Might be able to pull it apart and find the problem. Hopefully the transducers are able to be removed from the tank without trouble.

Nothing to lose at this point, I would take it apart and see if the 8 year old missed something that came loose...

nice, I used a Branson 8510 years ago on my rebuild and loved it.

Amazon.com has a number of ultrasonic cleaners in various sizes. Here's one for about a hundred dollars less, but it's pretty small; others to choose from: http://www.amazon.com/Kendal-Commercial-ULTRASONIC-CLEANER-HB-36MHT/dp/B00L9F37JQ/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1444668390&sr=8-18-spons&keywords=ultrasonic+cleaner&psc=1

Here's a bigger one for about the same price:

22L on fleabay. $292.90. I quote:

" High efficiency cleaning for teeny blot particles."
"Perfect for cleaning the longhole, finedraw and shelter of piece part or workpiece, no need to touch cleaning fluid by your hands."

OK.

Same thing on amazon $246.

[Dpmulvan]

I hate it when you get blot particles in your long hole.

Nothing penicillin won't take care of.

I cleaned every part of my recent 3.0 rebuild except the case in my ultrasonic cleaner and it worked great. Highly recommended.

Is the 5 gallon size big enough for a case half? It isn't , is it?

[reddogmotrsprts]

I was able to fit 12 cans in there, but it turns out beer isn't a very good cleaning agent. On the other hand, clean up was delicious!

Nope the case half is way too big. The biggest engine piece you can fit in there is a cam housing.

Did you ever figure out the problem? Did you loos all power or only some functions?

I found with mine after about 30 hours the switch crapped out I think because of the heater function which is not very good, takes forever. I got a 220 heater out of a coffee pot at work and just toss it in the tank, heats up in no time then pull it out. I removed all the heater crap from mine, the board inside was getting a bit brown from the high draw on the small wires so put it some heave power wires, back in business:
