syncrowave 180 issues

[pro-street1]

Hi guys, my 180 just started acting up yesterday. When hitting the foot pedal, we get molten tungsten, no argon feed, and a buzzing sound from the spark gap assembly (with wild sparking action!!). I called my local tig hospital, who of course want me to rush it right in, so they can start a walletectomy on me!! If anyone out there can help, it will really be Appreciated! Many Thanks. :confused:

Call Miller and ask for the tig service department. Sounds like it's the gas solenoid. I assume you turned on the gas and the regulator is working.

If under warranty they can even ship you the part directly.

problem solved!!! It all came down to a loose wire in the foot control. As frustrated as I was, I neglected to check that out the first time. I new this machine wouldn't let me down!! :D
