Troubleshooting
Programmable Skipline Controller
PROBLEM
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Controller not turning on
Fuse, battery, or wiring
1. Check fuse located next to 12V RoadLazer
battery
2. Check battery voltage. Replace if necessary.
3. Inspect wiring at battery for corrosion.
Inspect control cable for damage.
Controller shutting down
or cutting out during
striping
Battery or wiring
1. Check battery voltage. A weak battery can
drop voltage low enough to cause
intermittent shut down.
2. Check wiring
3. Ground control box to vehicle chassis
System Delay not turning
on
System not configured for striping or
is shut off
1. Remove gun arm from stowed position, and
start up engine. System delay will not turn
on unless you are ready to stripe.
2. System Delay must be turned back on after
engine is turned off or gun arm is returned to
stowed position.
Controller not displaying
MPH (KM/H), or readout
is erratic
Gun arm sensor or sensor wiring
1. Check sensor (324) located on gun arm
wheel assembly. Set sensor approximately
1/8 in. (3 mm) from target plate.
2. Check sensor head for damage. Replace if
damaged.
3. Check sensor wiring by removing solenoid
valve cover (319).
System Delay actual dis-
tance not precisely
matching programmed
distance
Programmed distance needs fine
tuning
1. This is usually true. Get it as close as
possible, then spray one additional test line
trying to hit start point.
2. Measure difference between start point and
where paint guns turn on. If paint guns turn
on before start point, add measured
difference to current system delay distance.
If paint guns turn on after start point,
subtract measured difference.
