    Hello Greg! The service you provide translates to many satisfied drivers on our nations highways.
    My question is:
    In 2020 I purchased a low mileage 2010 Honda Accord, with a mixed bag of tires on it - two tires worn more than the others, one tire a different load index, etc.
    So I had a new set of Pirelli All Season Pluses put on it, balanced, the whole nine.
    So what could have caused one of those wheels to be still out of balance even after balancing?
    The new Pirellis were mounted, balanced, and installed at a Town Fair the dealer farms out their tire and wheel services to, so I have no idea what balancer was used that day.
    After driving this fine Accord around for over two years, with kind of a nervous feeling especially the front wheels, I finally got it rebalanced with a 1300 at my local shop where I live in CT.
    Your thoughts on this are appreciated!

    Hello. Thanks for making this kind of videos.
    I just bought a used coats v200. I balance a tire and close the hood, it shows 0-0 open the hood and close it again now show .50-0, open hood and close again now show 0-0 again. What could the problem be

      Hi. Sorry for the late response. Most likely there’s nothing wrong, it could just be rounding if it’s detecting like a .4 and rounding up.

    I have the 1400, I can do the first step, but when I attempt to do the arm calibration it is saying "volts must be between 0.38 and 0.65, adjust pots" what do I do? First time ever seeing this, that k you in advance

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Most likely you need to replace the arm potentiometers (pots). How you check your voltage is push and hold the shift button while pushing the number 3, those will be your voltages and your right and left weight displace and those should be between the 0.38 and 0.65. And they should be constant; if they are rolling or changing value that's a definite sign that the pots need replaced. Now pull the arm out as far as the face plate is and hold it steady and see if they're changing value while they're out. If they do, then you need a service call. You can call Hennessy directly and they'll schedule you a service tech.
      Also, if the at home rest voltages aren't withing the range, you would need a service tech to come out and adjust those for you.
      Hope that helps!

    God bless you, how are you? I saw your video how to calibrate my coats 1400 2d equipment and I have an error 20, it says that the scale is out of range on that thing, what can I do to calibrate the arm?

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, God bless you too, thank you! Push shift and 3, that will bring up the voltages on your display. Your voltages need to be between 35 and 55. Most likely one of your voltages is too high or too low.
      If it’s out, you’ll need to schedule a service call. Your potentiometers may need adjusted by a Coats tech.

    Question on using other types of mounting methods…
    Do you need to recalibrate the balancer if you change to a collet, universal lug plate, or pin plate mounting method? Meaning do you need to incorporate any of these used for balancing in the calibration? Thanks in advance.

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, no, if it's calibrated you don't need to do anything different when you use special mounting collets or pin plates. But remember whatever goes on the balancer shaft gets balanced with the tire, so you don't want to use any damaged cones or pin plate adapters. And also, don't ever use a damaged hub nut, meaning one side broke off, the tire will definitely be out of balance. Thanks for the comment!

    Hello Mr. Greg I purchased a 1600 3d tire balancer that won't go past initializing screen like it's stuck loading can you help me?

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello. Sounds like it's not communicating between processors. You could check in the back of the machine there's a red cover, on the cover look through the hole and see if the light solid or blinking. If it's blinking then there's no communication between the processor and the inverter. That could be due to a bad wire or wire partially unplugged. First place I would check is under the hood mount, there's a computer, those plugs sometimes in shipping get pulled out accidently. Make sure those plugs are plugged in and also to the monitor at the top. Then reboot the machine, make sure it runs and then check if that light is staying on solid. If not, there could be a bad connection between processor and inverter, in which case you could removed the covers if you'd like and check to make sure the wires are all connected under there - being careful not to get shocked. If none of that works, you'll need to call Coats and have a service tech look at the machine.

    does the tire need to be balanced already?
    mine is and its asking me to put the blue weight where one of the previous tire weights are

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, the tire needs to be balanced to zeroes first before you can use it for calibration. Put your balanced wheel on the balancer, enter the dimensions, make sure you come up with zeroes on both sides, turn your wheel to a top dead center where there are no weights on the front or on the back. Then, turn machine off and back on again, don't rotate wheel, go right to calibration. And you'll be able to put your blue weight on where there is no weight.

    Do you have a video on the 1150- 2d ? I don't see much on it. Is it a bad balancer ?

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I apologize for the late response. The 1150-2D is a very good balancer. We have hardly any issues with them at all. It was replaced by the 1300.

    Have a 1400 balancer that says it calibrates but still ask for .5 oz after calibration. Any suggestions on what can be wrong? Thanks

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a little hard to tell without looking at it or getting more information. If your tire and wheel is zeroes before your calibration than it should be zeroes after the calibration.

      Not necessarily... it is the same but there are a couple different steps with the 1500 you don't do with the 1400. We'll do a 1500 calibration video, if you subscribe to our channel you'll get a notification when the video is posted. Thanks!

    Have a coats 1400 and while trying to do calibration it comes up with an error and says inner weight placement error -5.1 deg recal required. Wheel is balanced and everything i used it to recalibrate a 1250 with no issues.

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello. It sounds like when you are moving your weight from the front of your wheel to the back of your wheel, you may be off a little bit on the location. Also, this could be caused by bad piezo sensors, but if you're able to complete the calibration and it seems to go to zeroes after the first spin most times then you should be good.

  • @GETLOWDUDE
    @GETLOWDUDE 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    My balancer says “Imbalance” after completion.

    • @mr.tirechanger
      @mr.tirechanger  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ok, before you can calibrate the balancer, you have to have it balanced to zeros. In other words, your wheel has to be balanced to zeros before you can calibrate.
