About Implanted Medical Devices:
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a
cable cover. Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the
device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot

NOTICE − The Total Cable Length in Weld Circuit (see table below) is the combined length of both weld cables. For example, if the power source is
100 ft (30 m) from the workpiece, the total cable length in the weld circuit is 200 ft (2 cables x 100 ft). Use the 200 ft (60 m) column to determine cable
size.

SECTION 7 − TROUBLESHOOTING
7-1. Troubleshooting Table
! Before connecting welding equipment to input (primary) power for servicing, be sure the input-power circuit protection is correct
for the welding equipment. Connect equipment to a dedicated circuit sized and fused for the rated output and duty cycle of the weld-
ing equipment you are servicing. See the Electrical Service Guide section in this manual and National Electrical Code (NEC) article
630, Electric Welders.
. Equipment serviced may need to meet additional requirements as specified in IEC60974-4, Arc Welding Equipment − Part 4: Periodic Inspec-
tion and Testing.
. See Section 7-3 for test points and values, and Section 10 and following for parts location.
. Use Miller Testing Booklet (Part No. 150 853) when servicing this unit.
. See the Miller Extranet for service memos that may aid in the repair of this product.
Trouble Remedy
No weld output; wire does not feed. Be sure line disconnect switch is On (see Section 4-13).
Replace building line fuse or reset circuit breaker if open (see Section 4-13).
Secure gun trigger connections (see welding gun Owner’s Manual).
Check continuity of Power switch S1, and replace if necessary.
Check stabilizer Z1 for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for proper
connections. Replace Z1 if necessary.
Check main transformer T1 for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for
proper connections. Check secondary voltages. Replace T1 if necessary.
Check main control board PC1 and connections, and replace if necessary (see Section 7-5).
HL.P 002 appears on meters. Thermistor RT1 is detecting an overheating condition. Wait for unit to cool
allowing the fan to run. After unit is cool, If HL.P 002 message remains, check for an open Thermistor RT1
(see Section 8-2).
HL.P 004 appears on meters. Reset message by releasing the trigger or removing stuck wire causing
short circuit (see Section 7-2) . If message remains, check for shorted trigger leads.
run appears on meters during power up. Check for shorted contacts in the Reed Relay.
No weld output; wire feeds. Thermistor RT1 detecting overheating condition. Allow fan to run; the thermistor will reset unit when
cooled (see Section 8-2).
Connect work clamp to get good metal-to-metal contact.
Replace contact tip (see welding gun Owner’s Manual).
An overload condition occurred. Release gun trigger (see Section 8-2).
HL.P 003 appears on meters, check main control board and main rectifier.
Check SCR’s in main rectifier SR1, and replace if necessary.
Check stabilizer Z1 for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for proper
connections. Replace Z1 if necessary.

Trouble Remedy
Low weld output. Connect unit to proper input voltage or check for low line voltage (see Section 4-13).
Check input voltage jumper links and correct position if necessary (see Section 4-11).
Low, high, or erratic wire speed. Readjust front panel settings (see Section 5-1).
Change to correct size drive rolls (see Section 8-3).
Readjust drive roll pressure (see Section 4-14).
Replace inlet guide, contact tip, and/or liner if necessary (see welding gun Owner’s Manual).
Check position of input voltage jumper links (see Section 4-11).
Check hub tension setting (see Section 4-10)
No wire feed. Rotate Wire Speed control to higher setting (see Section 5-1).
Clear obstruction in gun contact tip or liner (see welding gun Owner’s Manual).
Readjust drive roll pressure (see Section 4-14).
Change to correct size drive rolls (see Section 8-3).
Rethread welding wire (see Section 4-14).
Check gun trigger and leads. Repair or replace gun if necessary.
H002 message appears on displays to indicate thermistor RT detected unit is in an overheated condition
(see Section 8-2).
Improper or no gas flow. Clean or replace gas hose.
Clear blockage in gun.
If gas flow is excessive, replace regulator.
Check coil voltage and connections of gas valve GS1. Check continuity of coil. Replace GS1 if necessary.
Fan motor FM not operating properly. Check and clear blocked fan blade.
Check coil voltage and connections of fan motor FM, and replace if necessary.

7-9. Pre-Operational Check
1 Weld Output Terminals

Check open-circuit voltage between
terminals according to Section 7-3
(voltage V11).
. Also use output waveforms to

check unit output after servicing
(see Section 7-4).
If correct voltages are not present,
Pre-Operational Checklist repeat troubleshooting procedures in
n Section 7-1.
Clean and blow out inside of unit. n ! Disconnect input power and
Clean weld output terminals. Tighten connections. n let unit cool.
Check labels; replace labels that are unreadable or damaged (see Parts List). n Complete pre-operational checks in
table. Reinstall wrapper, side panel,
Clean outside of entire unit. n and door.

Tools Needed:
3/4 in.
3/8 in.

8-2. Unit Overload

Thermistor RT1 in SCR1 protects the unit from damage due to overheating. If HL.P 002 is displayed on the meters,
wait for unit to cool allowing fan motor to run before trying to weld.
8-3. Changing Drive Roll and Wire Inlet Guide

Loosen screw. Slide tip as close to
drive rolls as possible without
touching. Tighten screw.

3 Drive Roll
The drive roll consists of two
different sized grooves. The
stamped markings on the end
surface of the drive roll refers to the
groove on the opposite side of the
1 drive roll. The groove closest to the
motor shaft is the proper groove to
thread (see Section 4-14).
