COURSE OF ACTION
TIG WELDING PROBLEMS
No high frequency. The machine is
in the TIG mode and has normal
output.
NOTE: BEFORE REPLACING A
CONTROL BOARD
If an Advanced Control Panel is
installed, remove it and replace
the Jumper in connector J-3. If
the machine functions normally,
the Advanced Process panel or
harness is defective.
1. If the machine is in a dirty envi-
ronment with conductive contam-
inants, check and clean the
spark gap with a low pressure air
stream per the maintenance
instructions.
2. Check the spark gap operations
and setting. Normal is (0.015”).
Refer to the Maintenance
Section of this manual.
3. Check circuit breaker CB1.
Reset if necessary.
4. Check connection J12 on the
control board.
1. Check the high voltage trans-
former (T2). The normal resis-
tance of the secondary winding is
12.5k ohms.
ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAN KILL. When
115 VAC is applied
to T2, a very high
voltage is devel-
oped on the secondary winding. For
assistance, call the Lincoln Electric
Service Department. 1-888-935-
3877.
2. Check R5, C6, C7, L2 and L3.
