OUTPUT PROBLEMS

Wire feeds but welding output is low
causing wire to “stub”. Welds are
“cold”. Machine cannot obtain full
rated output of 350 amps at 32
volts.

1. Make sure that the proper wire

and procedures are being used.

2. Check gun and work cable for

loose or faulty connections.

1. Check for loose or faulty connec-

tions of the heavy current carry-
ing leads. See Wiring Diagram

2. Perform the Current Transducer

Test.

3. Perform Output Waveform Test.

4. Perform the Output Rectifier

Assembly Tests

5. The Control Board may be faulty.

Replace.

The output voltage and wire feed is
present continuously or pulsing
when gun trigger is NOT activated.

1. Remove the gun. If the problem

is resolved, the gun trigger cir-
cuit is faulty. Repair or replace.

2. If problem persists when gun

assembly is removed from
machine, then the problem is
within the POWER MIG 350MP.

1. Find J85 on Feed Head Board

and unplug. If the problem still
exist Feed Head Board may be
faulty.

The output voltage is present con-
tinuously when gun trigger is NOT
activated. The wire is not feeding.

1. Find J6 on Control PCB and

unplug. If output voltage is not
present change Control PCB

2. Perform the Chopper Board

Test.
