WIRE DRIVE MOTOR AND WIRE SPEED POTENTIOMETER TEST

(continued)

1. Make the following voltage tests:

a. Turn the machine OFF between each test.

b. Carefully insert the meter probes into the lead side

of plug J4. See Figure F.4.

c. Turn the machine ON and pull the gun trigger to

conduct the voltage test.

2. If the voltage to the wire drive motor armature is

zero, check the wires between plug J4 and the wire
drive motor. Also check the electrical connector J5
for proper connections and jumper plug. See the
Wiring Diagram.

3. If all wires and connectors are good and the voltage

to the drive motor armature is zero, the control PC
board may be faulty. Replace the control PC board.

4. If the motor is running at high speed and the arma-

ture voltage is high and uncontrollable, replace the
control board.
